I’ve had a brilliant, although slightly daunting, day rehearsing for a Titco production of War of the Worlds. I’ve not really played the keyboard before and never played in a band, so it was a new and exciting experience for me. The performances are just a couple of weeks away at the Wyvern in Swindon. Today was the first time actors and band came together. It was also the first time I’d had a chance to look through the music properly.

I’m playing fourth keyboard, so I’m not playing all the time, although I’m playing extra supporting parts of harp, strings etc. I’m really looking forward to getting to grips with this over the next couple of weeks, but to play in a theatre… I can’t wait!
