Clive Nolan: "We have just completed another 'Alchemy' rehearsal… and I can really see the show starting to emerge. All the ideas are starting to meld together, and there is a real sense of anticipation starting to manifest itself in the Company. Andy Sears joined us for this one, and he brought a new energy to proceedings. We have now worked out what is happening in the finale, and I like the way it's going. I think there is an excellent balance emerging in this production of 'Alchemy'. The chorus are doing a great job getting their heads around both the singing and indeed the movement. David kept things moving forward at a good pace and we managed to get through all the Jagman scenes. Now… if I could just remember my lyrics!"
