Today, there will be a major editing session of the bulk of the first act and the latter half of the second act. Many of the edits will include major rewrites of Claudius and Julia, as well as some of the songs they are featured in. Orpheus's first solo will be finished as of tonight, as will the penultimate, powerful number of the show. The major point of conflict I'm having is whether to have the story end marginally happily or not at all happy in the least. The original idea was to make it end sadly because that's how the story is. The moral being, that not every love story has any sort of happy ending. Though frankly, that's a little bit depressing.

The exclamation point at the end of the title kind of scares me. Perhaps a title change is in order.

So far, Eurydice's major song has not been written. It is planned for the first act shortly after Orpheus sets out to find her. However, it has taken some time to come up with the sound I want to have for Eurydice. This song should be one of the highest points of the entire show.

Stay tuned for more updates on completion!
