Road to Opening Week 14: Matt Armet on 1 Weeks to A CHORUS LINE at Stratford
How did we get here already? I'm exhausted! But it's the best kind of exhaustion.

Our previews are coming along very well.
It's almost like a Polar Bear plunge - standing in the wings getting ready to make your first entrance.
We are onstage running the show more often than not, with many of the elements that are important.
BroadwayWorld is pleased to present an exclusive first look at the first ever professional production of A Chorus Line to have approved new choreography at The Stratford Festival in Canada.
We've now completed six previews.
We stood in a rehearsal room with our hearts beating full and hard, and sang with the orchestra for the first time.
Last Saturday was arguably one of the toughest days of rehearsal all year.
If I need to dance all over the stage, they make sure I can do it.
The train is going at full steam now and there is really no slowing it down until after Opening Night.
In 1965, my sisters and I auditioned for summer stock productions of Annie Get Your Gun, Gypsy and Finian's Rainbow being done at The Royal Alexandra Theatre in Toronto.
I fell into an orchestra pit.

As I mentioned last week, Actors Never Get Weekends! HA! I'm not really bitter about it.
I want to stay in the discovery of the character, not in the attitude of her or her life.
?Today is Good Friday! It's 2:00 p.
I feel like Linus in a Peanuts comic strip.
Every Thursday night, I sit down at my computer to write these posts.
'But if today were the day you had to stop dancing, how would you feel?' It's the heavy question asked by the director, Zach, close to the end of the show.
Starting a new show is a gloriously wonderful, terrifying experience.
12 Weeks until Opening Night.
Thirteen Weeks until Opening Night .
