We have a two week pause in rehearsals before the premiere on December 10th. I think this would be ideal as a group effort, if there's enough people interested. That way the burden wouldn't be too much for anyone. So anyone who's interested: please welcome! We can also prioritize the parts of the text: some lines and sentences are more important to the storyline and the rhythm of the performance than others. The long story in the middle ("Allegory") is something we can rehearse in English as well and convert it to Lojban later. Thank you for your help!

Lojba= n is quite flexible and allows for a vast range of expressive styles.

I'd like to hear more about this.

I could do that. But I won't be singing the singing parts :)

It is a lot to do for just a month, especially since I'm quite packed= =20
