How many hours do you have?

That… seems like an absurd waste of time. You can’t rehearse everyone every day for months. Eventually, you’ll have scenes with only two or three people (and those scenes will have to be done over and over and over again), and most people will end up sitting there doing homework. It just seems so inefficient. And it’s not like my Drama Club produces shlock: we sold out 4 out of 6 shows (with a 950-odd-seat auditorium, and selling around 600-700 tickets the first two nights) of our last musical, and our production of Les Mis was deemed professional-quality (granted, they had an extra month due to licensing and scheduling conflicts, but with the amount of singing, that’s pretty negligible).

Your shows must be incredible if you put so much effort into them.
