For the last couple of days we had the last rehearsals of the Eurofurence puppet show. Well, except for the dress rehearsal, of course, which will happen on site. As usual, it was a very busy and productive weekend. Without flooding, fortunately. I was a bit concerned after the first run on Saturday, as quite a lot of things just didn't work and every scene had to be played twice.

This year's show will rely more on storytelling and less on effects — don't worry, there will still be plenty of those as well, of course. And lots of comedy. I'm afraid I cannot tell more about it for now. All I can say is: come to Eurofurence 13 and watch the show!
