Behind the Scenes #6

The first song to be composed was "I Love You" and the last song was "Katherine's Call." During the summer of 2009, Christopher planned to compose a new melody every day. Having a plentiful collection of melodies from which to choose from, he added lyrics, with full awareness of the plot and the characters. He dated almost all of his sketches and scores and maintains a file with numerous revisions for each song.

TO BE CONTINUED...

Rehearsal #4 Report

Last Friday's rehearsal consisted of blocking the major ensemble numbers and cleaning up the blocking and the timing on the solo and duet numbers. Last week, the cast met individually with Christopher and experimented with their character movement in relation to the music and the lyrics. All the songs of the musical are blocked for the December 1st Preview Night.

The cast submitted their bios for inclusion in the program, which is going to the copiers.

Select photos from the "All's Fair in Love" Photo Day will be displayed in the Great Hall lobby on December 1st.

Since C.W. Post is closed for the Thanksgiving Break, there will not be a group rehearsal this Friday. The next rehearsal for the production is the DRESS REHEARSAL on Monday, November 30th from 7 to 11 pm in the Great Hall.

The script for the February 7th full production of "All's Fair in Love" is almost complete!

Behind the Scenes #5

Using the Finale music notation software for the Mac, he translated his sketches to the computer. The computer allows him to add and edit lyrics, adjust page layout, insert chord symbols, and adjust keys for the songs. With bi-weekly updates to Prof. Strommen, Christopher stayed on task, knowing that the earlier the songs are completed, the sooner the production phase could begin.

TO BE CONTINUED...

Behind the Scenes #4

Christopher decided to create the musical from the bottom up instead of continuing from the original musical outline. Beginning in June 2009, he sketched many of the musical's melodies while working as a ballet accompanist at the USDAN Center for the Creative and Performing Arts. After positive reactions from the campers and the dance instructors, Christopher was confident that the musical would be a worthy endeavor.

Photo Day Report

Photo Day was a great success, despite the rainy weather! Thanks to the fine photography by Mr. Nick Errico and the superb makeup design by Ms. Rachel Cruz which greatly enhanced the quality of the headshots, body shots, and group shots. The photos will be used as publicity shots of the progress of "All's Fair in Love."

The cast got the first look at the script for Act I of the musical, and they also got to hear the Overture and Entr'acte of the musical. Because the photo shoot took the entirety of the rehearsal, blocking of the songs will take place during the week and at the next group rehearsal on Friday, November 20th. The cast received a listing of the upcoming rehearsals for the next two months.

Christopher will be meeting individually with the cast to work on their presentation for the December 1st Preview Night. The program for that evening is in development.

The flyers for the musical are in distribution and can be found at the university and in the local areas. Spread the word about this special event!

Storytime with Jenny Johnson

Let's hear a story from Jenny Johnson:

I had just turned 17 and for my 17th birthday I had a sleepover with only my closest friends: Nicole, Chloe, Anna, Lindsay, Kaitlyn, and Tina. We just finished putting our face masks on when my annoying brother intrudes into my room for no reason. All the girls screamed and Tina got so embarrassed. She's had a crush on my brother ever since we were little but he is so not into the whole girlfriend thing. Anyway I got the best presents. My best friend Tina got me my first pair of Uggs. I also got an adorable coach bag from Lindsay. Everyone else gave me money or gift cards which is perfectly fine with me.

We had so much fun that night. We all did our nails, toenails, make-up ... the works. We ordered pizza and watched our favorite movie — Sleepover. We've never had a sleepover without watching that movie. Then we put on some music and danced for like an hour and a half. It was amazing. Then we all got ready for bed and everyone fell asleep except for me and Tina. We had a nice reminiscing talk. We figured out we've been best friends for fourteen years and this was our fourteenth birthday sleepover. Then we realized that we'd be going our separate ways for college at the end of the school year. But we put that aside and just thought of all the fun and memorable times we've had together and that we will have in the year to come.

Thanks to Jenny and cast member Rachel Cruz for sharing this story.

Storytime with Martin Johnson

Let's hear a story from Martin Johnson:

My dad and I went to go pick out a car one day, and since my dad knows someone in an old used car lot, we went there to look. Now of course, the cars weren't the greatest looking things in the world, but it would get me where I needed to go, for the meantime of course.

After a few hours of looking, I was convinced I would not find the one for me. Many of the cars had too much mileage, and others appeared to barely be holding themselves up. I was very disappointed. Until, there it was. Right in the corner, near the back, a more than half decent car with low mileage (at least, significantly lower than the others), a white 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix. It had to be jump started because it was sitting for so long, but it drove perfectly! It was so happy! My dad let me drive it home, and I then showed my mom. My sister was very jealous, and it was then when my parents informed me that she may be using my car to learn. Wonderful ...

Thanks to Martin and cast member Joseph Bebry for sharing this story.

Storytime with Mrs. Johnson

Let's hear a story from Mrs. Johnson:

It was my senior year in high school and I had already begun searching for the right school to further my learning experience. My senior year schedule was as follows: Advanced History, Choir, English, Biology, and then I had early dismissal. I was all ready to go for the first week of classes, for I loved going to school. I loved thinking. You know how in high school, you walk in to your first class to scope out where you will sit and who you know? Well this one teacher had decided that the class would sit in alphabetical order, and I was placed next to George. Eek! This man was so opinionated and he always had to be right! So annoying. Because this was an advanced course we were told to do a research project and so no one was left out we were given partners. I am sure you know who I was partnered with... Mr. George Johnson! Later in the day I found out he was in my English class too, just like every year since ninth grade when I first met this sly, word-savvy, irritating man.

Flash forward later that year….
After working with George all that time in History, even though we argued about everything related to it, I found he had a certain charm. Outside of history, I discovered that we had the same family oriented goals. Then one day in English to my surprise, he asked me on a date. Also surprisingly, there was no hesitation on my part. From then on we were a couple. We even got voted cutest couple in the year book, and he was most likely to succeed, not to my surprise. From that day in English when my heart took over my mind, I knew I would spend the rest of my life with him!

And you see Jenny, you just know when that one person comes. He is it. You just know.

Thanks to Mrs. Johnson and cast member Sarah Boylan for sharing this story.

Behind the Scenes #3

As Christopher completed his Master's degree in Music Theory and Composition at C.W. Post, he reconsidered resurrecting the full length musical project after taking graduate courses in Composition and Orchestration from Prof. Carl Strommen. A graduate thesis in composition provided him with a venue as well as an academic purpose to compose and direct an original musical.

Cast Message for 11/12

Hello Cast,

Tomorrow is Photo Day! The weather looks to be rainy tomorrow and if so, our photo shoot will take place inside. Here is what you should know:

If you can arrive before 11, please do so. I and Rachel will be at Fine Arts at 10:30 and for those of you who can get here early, she can prepare the theater makeup treatment for you. If your character wears a hairstyle different to your own, please wear it that way. Bring any hairspray or hair accessories with you and if you need assistance setting your hair, we will assist you.

I've spoken to each of you about what you are wearing. If you are not wearing your outfit to school, then bring it with you and before 11 change into it. I encourage you to bring some accessories for your outfit (e.g. Mr. Johnson carries a coffee mug or cup, Anthony wears a nametag, Martin fights Jenny for his car keys, etc.)

For the photo shoot, we NEED lighting. If you have a fairly strong or bright lamp at home and can bring it tomorrow, that would be greatly appreciated. Three lamps altogether should be adequate for good headshots.

As always, bring your music and dialogue, although it all should be MEMORIZED by now. The first performance will be in 19 days! Blocking begins now. I would like to make Photo Day very efficient and get you those photos for your own portfolios promptly. We will be rehearsing after the shoot, so please try to stay and learn the blocking.

I am handing out flyers tomorrow!

All's Fair in Photo Day!
Christopher

Behind the Scenes #2

During Christopher's undergraduate years in Boston College, he began construction of a full length musical. With the assistance of a trusty faculty advisor, he learned to develop the plot and characters and how to vary musical ideas. Unfortunately, the project was dropped and put aside.

Storytime with Anthony DiSalvo

Let's hear a story from Anthony DiSalvo:

I was leading a group of hikers on a moderately difficult trek. We set out on Monday and we had planned on summiting Baldy Mountain in the Northwest corner of the 137,493 acre property. It was Thursday mid afternoon when we reached the 12,441 foot peak, and the sight was breathtaking! When I had checked in with base camp, they had received reports that a severe thunderstorm was coming up on our location, and quickly at that. Our original plan was to make our way back down the mountain and set up camp for the night. With clouds moving in rapidly, it didn't look like we were going to make it even halfway down before conditions would become unsafe.

Mt. Baldy is known for its steep slopes and heavy rain. It is that mountain's worst nightmare. The hikers and I had worked our way down to about 4,000 feet and I decided to hold up there for the night. Right below that point, the side of the mountain dropped off and getting stuck there would be catastrophic. About an hour after the sun went down, we lost radio contact with base camp. The conditions were worsening by the minute. Eventually, I had to make the decision to abandon our tents because we were at risk to be caught in a landslide. We descended about 75 feet when we found a rock outcropping and some solid ground. There we waited out the rest of the storm.

While we slept, one of the scouts awoke and, being quite scared, left the safety of the outcropping. When I woke up early the next morning, I immediately noticed his absence. I managed to regain communication with base camp and radioed for help. For the next few hours, I searched, along with my fellow staff members, for the boy. The rest of my trek crew were transported back to the ranch headquarters with no delay. After many hours of searching, we found the lost scout. He was pretty beaten up, having fallen a good distance down the mountain. We got him air lifted to a local hospital where he made a full recovery. At the end of that day, I put in my two week notice.

I felt that I had failed my place of work, failed the crew I was leading, and failed myself. It was my responsibility to keep my hikers safe, and I nearly lost the boy. So after I quit, I moved back to my home town of Greenvale in hopes that I'd put my past behind me. I started work for a local knick knack shop, a much safer position.

Thanks to Anthony DiSalvo and cast member Nick Errico for sharing this story.

Behind the Scenes #1

The idea behind "All's Fair in Love" stems back to Spring 2006 when Christopher listened to an original ten minute musical composed by his brother Stephen and performed by students of Yale University. The musical was called "Life Depends on Love" and was based on Aesop's fable of Venus and the Cat. Featuring four singers and a small pit band, the musical achieved the objectives of the Shen Musical Theater Composition Project at the university.

Storytime with Katherine Baker

Let's hear a story from Katherine Baker:

It was one of those days where I really didn't know what I was expecting, but I knew I was ready for whatever it was. I knew the material. I was confident. I'd pass the test with flying colors.

Marine Biology was one of my favorite classes in school. I loved everything about it, learning every aspect of it, and it just came naturally to me. I didn't need to study.

So I was more than taken aback when I got back my grade. I had gotten a C. A C? I didn't get C's. I knew this stuff. I could practically teach this class! There had to be some mistake.

Of course, I stayed after to speak with my teacher. I explained to him that I knew everything on that paper. I even covered my answers and answered the questions orally to him. He said he'd look over the paper again.

The next day, he told me there'd been some mistake and that the grades had gotten mixed up. I'd actually gotten an A+. I was definitely glad that I was confident in my knowledge and that I confronted my teacher when I knew I did well.

Thanks to Katherine Baker and cast member Melissa Nyman for sharing this story.

Storytime with Sylvia

Let us hear a story from Sylvia:

As a baby my folks took pictures of me and sent them into catalogs. I was always around the cameras, and beautiful people. It wasn't until I reached middle school that the kids would make fun of me. I think they were just jealous, but while I was trying to be nice, they would walk away because I was "a model". I never got money for it, my parents took it and saved it for me to go to college. They told me that just because I'm beautiful doesn't mean I can't be intelligent. So I went to school, I wanted to become a teacher, to teach kids that we're all beautiful individuals, we just need to embrace ourselves.

I won a scholarship for a project of mine. It was called, "Eye of the Beholder". We had everyone in my class take pictures of themselves and we posted them on the front cover of the college newsletter. Every month there was a new face. But we had them take pictures without make-up, and without any special effects. The result was amazing, it really taught us how to love ourselves and how to battle the hazing and the low self-esteem within our society. I was recognized for an award called 'The Battle Against Media". Basically, through a non-violent approach, we all took a stand against the media and it's view on beauty. it was truly amazing. this has been my drive throughout life. To show everyone that they are beautiful!

Thanks to Sylvia and cast member Christina Montalto for sharing this story.

November 6th Report

There was no group rehearsal this Friday because a majority of the cast members were involved in a musical performance at C.W. Post during the usual scheduled rehearsal time. The cast will have their next group rehearsal on Friday, November 13 which is also the Official Photo Day for the December 1st preview night.

Some cast members rehearsed with Christopher during the week to solidify harmonies and to finalize the songs. All major revisions of the songs have been completed.

The cast is continuing their character development work by thinking about appropriate blocking for their songs as well as how their characters present themselves in appearance. This work will assist Christopher in blocking the song numbers and the dialogue. It will also influence how the cast prepares for Photo Day.

The promotional flyer for "All's Fair in Love" preview night has been approved by the university and will be distributed to cast members during Photo Day.

All About Sylvia

What do you know about Sylvia? Our production team got the inside scope in our latest interview:

Is it true you entered beauty pageants in your teenage years? How did you place?

Yes it is true! Can't you tell? For the first few years, I made 3rd and 2nd place. But I received a lot of advice and worked really hard until I made Numba one! Now I help everyone feel beautiful!

How active are you in your community?

I have a strong following of supporters that inspire me. I became very popular soon after high school, but for the right reasons. However, some people thought I was mean, but when I gave a campaign for the town titled "Beautiful After 10 Years," everyone felt good about themselves and I represented the town in their push for health and beauty awareness in the State Conference held that year.

Were you mistaken for a famous celebrity? Which one?

Which one? Somebody thought I was a celebrity. But I humbly corrected him. I guess I'm meant for fame! Another time a group of construction workers thought I was a model. Can you believe that? I guess being 40 isn't so bad!

Any other details to share with the theatergoing public?

My husband works long hours, but I believe I'm a very devoted wife. However, I love to shop! I wish he were home more so he could go shopping with me.

Thanks to Sylvia and cast member Christina Montalto for their contributions.

All About Martin Johnson

What do you know about Martin Johnson? Our production team got the inside scope in our latest interview:

What activities and organizations are you involved in?

I am the Captain of the high school's Track and Field team. I also am a member of the Debate Club.

What annoys you the most about your sister Jenny?

I can't stand her naive attitude (although it resolves throughout the storyline of the musical). She jumps at the chance to criticize me in front of my parents or my friends. I really hate that she persuaded our parents to let her use my car to learn to drive. That's so embarassing!

What kind of car do you own? Is it your dream car?

I wish! I really should have a top of the line sports car. I'd even settle for a fairly new model. Instead I got a hand me down from my dad's friend at work. It would be nice if it were solely mine, but Jenny has been trying to use it more and more.

How would you describe yourself?

I like to keep my things in place. I like when I have things under control. I admit that sometimes I have trouble trusting certain people with my stuff; they will remain nameless for obvious reasons. I'm not too materialistic, but I have a few exceptions. I may not show it often, but I really do care for my parents. I just wish they wouldn't embarrass me so much. I tend to be persuasive at times; I attribute that to my years on the Debate team and my persistent mother.

Thanks to Martin and cast member Joseph Bebry for their contributions.

All About Jenny Johnson

What do you know about Jenny Johnson? Our production team got the inside scope in our latest interview:

What do you and your BFFs do?

Where do you like to shop?

I shop at Joyce Leslie, American Eagle, and Delia's. I love accessories like jewelry, headbands, scarves, and purses.

How do you earn allowance from your parents?

I wash the dishes every night and I set and clear the table for dinner.

What else do you love to do?

I love to dance and sing. There's nothing better than having a sleepover with my BFFs and rocking out to the Beatles. I also enjoy watching romantic comedies with my BFFs.

Thanks to Jenny Johnson and cast member Rachel Cruz for their contributions.

Rehearsal #3 Report

On Friday, October 30, there was a Group rehearsal for "All's Fair in Love."  The cast members are slowly recovering from the illnesses they felt from last week.  They reviewed the ensemble numbers and learned a revised addition to the ending of "All's Fair in Love."  Those who did not read their character backstories to the group at the last rehearsal did so at this rehearsal.  The cast performed their solo and duet numbers for the entire cast to watch and react to.  The feedback from Christopher and the cast was both positive and motivational.  Each cast member received revised copies of their music and the lead-in and lead-out dialogue for each song in the musical.  They used the dialogue as a blueprint for their improvisational character work during the vamp sections of each song.  Ideas for blocking were discussed.

During the week, there was a private rehearsal between the characters Martin and Katherine in which minor alterations were made to "You Must Trust Me."  This week, more private rehearsals will take place since there will NOT be a group rehearsal on Friday due to numerous cast members having a performance with the university.

One Month to Go

There is one month until preview night for "All's Fair in Love."  All songs should be memorized by now.
