Statistics

(according to Arts On Tour NSW) A few statistics about the Clan/Spirit tour 2006:

  • 6 states and territories (actually, 7: all but South Australia)
  • 8 coach transfers
  • 13 Taragos
  • 14 venues (of all shapes and sizes)
  • 22 performances (is that all?)
  • 33 flights (how many frequent flyer points?)
  • 66 days on the road (it seemed longer)
  • 290 motel rooms (how many stars?)
  • 300 cabcharges

And, tomorrow, it all comes to an end (but not before blowing a few more cabcharges!). Gathering, The Australian Ballet and the injury seemed like a long time ago. But with only (???) a UK tour in Sept/Oct, it seems like its all coming to an end for 2006 even though its only August. Its even strange when we've just picked up a new program which is starting to hit its stride here in Ballarat, and now we have to go back into rehearsal mode again.

Tonight we were at the historic Her Majesty's Theatre in Ballarat. It has a mean rake and, with so many stairs and corridors, it feels more like a rabbit warren. There has been sign of "tour fatigue" at this venue, not helped by the extra-large full moon yesterday, but it'll be good to spend an extended time at home.
