Crew- Kristie- I left my SM kit next to the little sound board in the rehearsal stage with my script on top of it. Please note all the blocking in whatever way you choose in my script. If I cannot understand it, I will ask you about it. Please be as detailed as possible. I will send you some google documents for the rehearsal report, and cast sign in. Make sure you sweep the rehearsal space well!

Accident/Incident

Dumb Stuff it's fun to find out- Palmas is a style of handclapping used in Flamenco music as an essential form of percussion to help punctuate and accentuate the song and dance. Good palmas can be a substitute for music, such as in the corrillo at the end of a show. Good palmistas can assist the musicians by keeping a strong tempo, or the dancer by accentuating the end or beginning of a phrase.

Dumb Stuff it's fun to find out Although it is difficult to pinpoint the origin of the slow clap, Citizen Kane (1941) is often cited as the first movie to use the slow clap. The term slow clap gained steam in the popular lexicon in the mid to late 2000s. It is believed the term may have originated from a 2004 movie review by Roger Ebert, but it was probably being used long before that by the general public. (click the link to see the GIF) Slow Clap
