CURTAIN CALL: ‘Let Me Think About It’ by The Singles

- I contributed here by watching the rehearsal and making the changes to the scene music, lighting and effects each time we decided to do something differently, take a part out, or put something in, so we could tweak it to be the best that we could make it. An example of this was when we thought that there was too little time to create and fix up a whole new solo scene for Abisola so we had it taken out instead so we could focus on perfecting the other scenes.
