A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE

Since Sunday June 8th 2014, Joe and I and the team  have been rehearsing The Actors Studio's Seni Teater Rakyat's A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE - the Tennessee Williams' Classic, this time presented by JTi as a DANCE.
The Team comprises Paul Loosley as Production Designer, Bernard Goh as Musical Director and Composer, together with the trusted Debbie, Lex as Choreographer and a fixer of things (I'll get to that later), Lim Ang Swee as Lighting Designer, John Siew as Sound Engineer, Lawrence as Stage Manager with Josh and Ping assisting him, and Cash - an intern from Sunway University College. The person I left out is our costume Designer, Wendy, and that's where Lex steps in to fix up all the designs that did not make it to opening night. Between you and me the Production Designer has to be answerable too if you cannot get what you want from your designers - say no more.
Besides Lex who did the most so many others chipped in including Pui See, Wei Jun and the lady dancers themselves. (sigh)
We bumped in on Monday - that's when Paul Hasham steps in as a set builder.
