Cinderella - behind the scenes

One of our tasks during this EVS project was to participate in local theatre festival. None of us is used to acting on stage, so at first we weren't too enthusiastic about this. We were preparing Cinderella play - it was extra challenging, because we couldn't use any words and the performance was supposed to be very short.
With time we started to enjoy the experience more, especially since we got fancy clothes from Stelpe's school. At first all rehearsals were taking place at our house.
Finally we were ready to practise on the stage - it was a completly new experience. We had to find our places in this big space and we had problems with turning our backs on the audience. But practise makes prefect and after many many repetitions we were ready for the show.
 Masha was the official hair stylist of our play - i.a. she created Raquel's/Evil Sister's beautiful hairdo.

More about the actual performance and festival in general in the next post.
