A Disastrous Rehearsal

Today we worked on the school play. We practiced on the real stage, not our classroom. A lot of people forgot their lines and when they were supposed to say them. When the person with news came and I called "Scribe!", the water jug person that had been missing came on. After Mr. News had left, in fact in the next scene, where I was playing senet and wondering what I should do, the scribe came in when I called for the priestess to bring me the sistrum. The priestess came in when I was calling upon Isis (without the sistrum). Isis was right behind the priestess and tripped on her costume and toppled into the priestess. It took so long to calm everyone down that by the time the chaos stopped, it was time to get back to regular work.
