The last day has been eventful. Elizabeth, who plays Tubal and Portia's servant, was knocked off her motorbike yesterday. She was hit from behind, has many broken ribs and a ruined helmet (it saved her life). She'll be in hospital for the next month or so.

As far as The Merchant of Venice is concerned, this will hopefully bring the cast together, after last Saturday's cancelled show. I will take on the role of Tubal and Emmett will be Portia's servant. Cam will run lights for the shows that Mark can't do.

I recorded lines with Theresa last night and listened to them on loop on the way to work - but only for a while. The iPod broke and I couldn't remember how to reset it. Theresa investigated for me, but I had already tried her suggestion. Only when I got to work did I realise that you hold Menu and Play on a 3G iPod, not Menu and Select.

Also going against me was the traffic. I got up at 6:15 so that I could get to work early for something I needed to do. But then it took two hours to get in, due to an accident on the Monash.

Sigh.
