We spent the day organising the visual and technical aspects of The Lounge as oposed to the audio.
I brought in the outfit/costume I intend to wear for the show so that I could compare it with everyone else's costumes to ensure we look like a well-presented and cohesive unit on stage. As we previously agreed on a red and black colour scheme for costumes, I brought in a black, collared shirt, red and black checkered trousers, black shoes and necklace. The response from the group to my outfit choice was universally positive as it met the colour scheme whilst also looking smart - fitting with our sophisticated lounge theme.
I loved Serena's inclusion of a bright red head wrap to her simple black ensemble as it invoked the spirit of Erykah Badu's style during her first albums Baduizm and Mama's Gun. The head wrap will also add a more worldly to our overall apperance on stage as its a very common piece of attire worn by African women.
Elica brought in her 2 cordless microphones and accompanying kit for us all to see as we'll be using them in the show. They'll be a great aid as they'll encourage and allow for a greater range of movement for those like myself who have either specific choreographed movement or just intend to explore the stage during their performances beyond the confines of the microphone stand and cordless mics - which will easily get tangled and become a safety hazard with the number of microphones we will be using.
