Tonight's entire rehearsal was focused on the songs between me and Mary Kate.
I can't say enough about how cool it is to work with this girl. She's so professional and comes ready for anything, but at the same time has a great energy about her. It's so much fun to sing with her, so I can't wait to get to act with her. Marcus really had us play around with our two duets, "What Could Be Better" and "Two People in Love." It's starting to develop a chemistry for us, and I think that it'll really come further into play once we start blocking scenes. It also might help us to hang out a little more outside of rehearsals.
When we got to "I Chose Right," Marcus asked me to really start playing up the rock vocals during the bridge of the song. He wants there to be a definite difference between Danny's musical theatre sound and the punk rocker he wants to be, using the bridge as a demonstration of the performer he's going to be while he's gone. It's something I hadn't really thought about, since I thought that this was Danny at his most sincere. It still is, but the vocals give the song more levels, and show off more of Danny's personality. I'll have to keep playing with it; give it some grit without hurting my vocal chords
