Lunchtime Performance

1.  It was hard, since I hadn't had any rehearsal time before because I was gone before and after spring break. Cell Block Tango went well. I think that's because all of the girls loved the number, there was better audience feedback, and since it was a small group there was more of a connection between us so we could problem solve better throughout the number. I think it really helped to have a simple number where there wasn't a ton going on because in that venue, lots of movement just muddies the performance, especially to a crowd that isn't extremely interested. 
2. I think next time I would wear sunglasses that fit, so I don't have to keep pushing them up. Also, having more rehearsal time would help. 
3. My friends liked cell block because they knew it. I feel like with a general audience that isn't super into MT, you have to give them numbers that they know and love so it is enjoyable. More obscure songs work great for an MT dedicated audience, but in this kind of setting I think it's important to do more classic numbers.
