You can't have a performance without some good old blocking out. So tonight we started to work out where everybody comes in, goes out, stands, sits, leans and, well, you get the drift.

"Blocking a scene involves making decisions and communicating positions, actions, lines and instructions to all the actors, so they know where they are and what to do for each moment of the action."

Now that casting is done we also did a bit of acting too, which is always fun.

There's some fairly complex interactions between characters in Around the World in 80 Days so we've got some pretty energetic rehearsals ahead of us.

Tickets go on sale soon for Around the World in 80 Days so watch this space
