BOEING-BOEING Begins Previews May 25

Winner of the 2008 Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play, BOEING-BOEING is the story of Bernard, a successful architect living in Paris juggling three flight attendant fiancées – an American, an Italian and a German. With a complex system based on their flight schedules and some assistance from his disapproving housekeeper, Bernard thinks he can easily keep each woman unaware of the others’ existence. But when schedules change, flights are delayed, and a new and faster jet is introduced, Bernard’s system hits turbulence.

BOEING-BOEING Blog: May 17

"Quick" and "determination" are the two words that pretty much sum up the process of this show so far.  As an observing student I'm not quite sure if I'm more fascinated by the determination of the actors/director/stage manager to push through the complex nature of this show or the fact that after just a little under two weeks of rehearsal, the show is already at a solid point and just about ready for an audience.  Pushing through injuries, exhaustion, and sweat, the Boeing-Boeing team has pulled off something remarkable.  After watching tonight's solid run-through, after intense workings and polishings of scenes had been done, I can say that this show will most definitely keep the audience on the edge of their seats as the cast takes them on a wild ride.

BOEING-BOEING Blog: May 16

The set is coming together, with something new every day.  We got doors yesterday and doorknobs today.

Farcical door sequences are always so much fun to watch and so much fun to be in (eventually), but they require a lot of work and repetition.  So we spent some time doing those tonight - I love working on that stuff.  

We also got a metal "railing" behind the couch that is new to all of us - there wasn't room for any such luxury in the previous incarnation.  So we're going to enjoy exploring the possibilities it offers us.  I hope nobody trips on it, gets caught in it, or manages to impale themselves on it.  Not that there's anything inherently dangerous about the railing - but there is something inherently dangerous about schm-acting so hard that you become unaware of everything around you: I dread "coming to" after a particularly unfocused bit of panic and finding myself hanging from the railng by a piece of my costume.  So, I'll try to be careful.  :)

It is a challenge putting familiar material in a different space - but it's one that's fun to attack!
