Before the show has started

I can't believe I came there so early. Ilan promised me that before all will come we'll share some coffee and cookies that he will bring. I thought I came too late for that. I called him to say I'm sorry and I'm on the way. He still didn't come at all and was only at the way out... When I came - Neta was already there with her niece who came with her for helping all of us. Her daughters who took a part in the show were there with them. And one oh the beginners. The beginner went to buy herself some coffee. The niece of Neta took Neta's kids with her for something like this too. Someone from the theatre came to open. 

Inside there was a better place for us than last year. The beginner came back and one more came with her. They started to make up. I was wondering about my friend who promised me to help me with the hair. She still didn't come. I made some phone calls. First of all to my friend. It tool her some time to answer and she didn't sound well. I woke her up from sleeping. I called a moment after to Ilan. I asked him if he's on the way. He said he isn't. He's in the Caribbean... Fine. I came with hair grease of my own. I made a try to repeat what my friend made to my hair last year. Sometimes it's hard for me to remember steps, but with other things my memory is great. It helped me now. I made it. Few more girls came. Ilan finally came. Neta made him busy. After I made my hair I asked the girls what do they think - if it looks good. The daughter and kido who were already there said both it looks good. If they say so - it's good enough for me. I dressed up for the first roll. Ilan called me for coffee outside. We drank in another room with the man. Ilan apologized it isn't like from a coffee shop, but one more thing which was good enough for me. Those little things that can make a difference... Ilan said that I still need to fix my hair for making it better. 

My friend came in a big late. She started to practice with the non clean one on our alegria. Near them Ilan and the bimbo made a practice on the legs' drill. I have to be in both things and I couldn't choose for who to join. So I looked all of them from the side and made a try remember what's going on. The bimbo moved away. There was still a practice on the alegria. Ilan started to practice his solea por buleria that meant to dance alone on stage. I could join now to the alegria, but it was interesting for me to look at the solo of Ilan. He moved to another place - where we drank the coffee earlier. It was still in a place I could look all of them.

Andrue came.

When this practice has been finished and my friend ready to do her own hair - Neta asked us to start the rehearsal. It started with all of us in the seats of the hall, Neta told us how does she want it to be. The kids has started to do their thing. It looked a bit less weird. We made our leg's drill. It wasn't too bad. Moved on. We stayed in our "practice" clothes for the rest of time of rehearsal. Still we let ourselves to go out for some moments. My friend fixed my hair for it would be perfect. She said that I did it well, but only few little things. She was afraid she cause me pains. 

We came back for the stage. After few things which had nothing with us - we made a practice on the alegria. The "ballerina" and the girl from Haifa still didn't come. We made it without them. Ok, it wasn't perfect, but I felt more safe. As far as I needed someone will bring my manton to stage cause of my places of the alegria and siguiryia, and with it comes together... It was the job of the "ballerina" who wasn't there. I knew I couldn't trust her! Neta was busy with the fact the girl from Haifa wasn't there. I asked the non clean one if it's ok with her if she will bring me my manton. She said it's fine. I thanked her, but after that she offered me to leave my manton behind some curtains there for I won't be depend in anyone. When we told it to Neta she didn't like it. She said it's a bad idea cause it will make me go out stage in the middle and I'm not suppose to do so. The non clean one will bring me. My friend was worried because she saw the shirt and skirt I was wearing and didn't want me to dance the alegria with it. I told her I will change. 

Shuky came. We started to make a practice on the siguiryia when he was with us on stage but Neta has gone. The man had always something to "fix me" about my entrance since we had the standing for the 
siguiryia. Till now it only just pissed me for a moment and I moved on. I made my entrance as Neta told me without to give attention to what he said. Now it REALLY pissed me and I started to argue with him a bit. There was a problem also to the others, so we made one more try to the start. The man "fixed" me again in a way which seemed much more aggressive than the usual. This time I couldn't any longer. I started to shout on him that I know what I do, I know when I suppose to enter and he shouldn't fix me. Because he wanted so much to fix me - I missed my entrance. He made an entrance with me while I couldn't stop shouting on him that I don't need his help to tell me when and how to make my entrance. Few made a try to calm down the air. I couldn't tell if I saw right or was it on my mind that the musicians made a try NOT to start laugh even that they wanted. 

We didn't have a long practice on the siguiryia. Neta wanted us to do the last rehearsal like we're performing. Her photographer was already there. It was also for he will see how does it looks like and will start to take our photos. And of course - we need to be ready. 

Backstage. The man was there with the bimbo and... I can't remember who else. I started to shout on him again that he has no right to fix me. I want him to tell me NOW if he's about to do it again on stage while we'll have the show. The girls made a try to calm me down and said it doesn't worth it. I didn't give a damn any more if it's worth it or not. It's the end, we're about to do the real thing in from of people and I didn't want him to fix me on something which I do right (mostly because he's not in my level and he really doesn't have the right). He started to blame me. Now he doesn't know me and it's me who always "fix" him and I don't understand how does his part. What a lie! And he had to ask me where is my head. Now he's in trouble! My shouts moved on, but now it moved on for a threat. I was shouting on him that if he tell me once again what to do - I will kill him. I guess I won't really kill him, but it made him shut his mouth. The girls said I should do what Neta told me to do. I will. I did it all the time. 

I got back to the dressing rooms. There are two there, Ilan was at one and my friend in the other. I told each one of them alone that I'm about to kill the man cause it's too much for me. Ilan said that I should calm down and do what I suppose to do. I know how to make my part. On the way to the other room - I saw that the "ballerina" came and looked so full of herself. The girl from Haifa also came and she asked me if we already made the alegria. I said we did one, but we're about to make it now again as a part of the last rehearsal with clothes and order of all. I told my friend that what were the shouting. She told me I shouldn't take it hard cause he's nothing and he can't dance. She wants to make me up. I will look pail on stage if I will stay this way. 

Neta got back to the dressing rooms. She said that there is a problem with her solo. She's meant to do a new tango of hers, but Shuky who knows it didn' bring his guitar. They were teaching a bit Andrue what's going on with it, but it wasn't enough. She will have to make something on stage without a real rehearsal.  

We started to last rehearsal. The kids made their part. We got in for stretching and legs' drill. The assistant said that the stretching part was too long. We've been told to get into stage in another part of Shuky's sinning. We didn't made another try for it and moved on. The rest of drill was good. We went out to change. I made it fast. I think I was the fastest this time... For Ilan it took forever. The man made some stretches there, but didn't try to change. He got back to stage this way, the same clothes of the legs' drill. 

The rehearsal moved on. Shuky had one solo of his own, but he passed his right for last rehearsal with us for we'll have more time. Neta asked Ilan to dance his solo, but he remind her it isn't time yet. It's the garrotin now. They made their part. After that was Ilan. I know this part, but it was first time that I saw all with live music. Near the end he still looked like he isn't sure. 

We made our siguiryia. This time the man didn't dare to tell me anything, but Neta told him. She asked him why didn't he change his clothes. The photographer is there, and the man is ruin all now. 

After that - the alegria. Although I didn't want to ask for it from the non clean one - I knew I can trust her. She brought me the manton as she promised. It was waiting for me. We had to stop for a moment. Our last rehearsal before didn't include the girl from Haifa and now Neta said we didn't give her enough space. After making the space - we moved on. 

Now it was the part of Neta, but no time for it. Not even time to practice our buleria. We need to be ready, our show is about to start.

At the dressing room my friend told me she wants to make me up now for I won't look pail. I told her I need to change again. She said fine, after that. I changed, she started to make up others one by one. It looked liek she has no time. I checked up with my guests who really came. I said hello to one, took out the coke I brought for the audience could drink it if they want to. My friend said I went away and gone for her. She wants to make me up NOW. There is no time, I need to be on stage in a moment... She made something really fast. Made my skin a bit, my eyes and a bit of blush. I had my own lipstick. I ran to stage after reminding Ilan many times that he should be hurry too.
