Rehearsal review
Rehearsing right now for the second time inside the Rotterdam Ahoy is Albina performing “Tick-Tock” for Croatia. We will continue to update this article as each run through takes place, so make sure to keep refreshing for the most up-to-date review!
Firstly, remind yourselves what happened in the first rehearsal:
And now here is what we’ve noticed in today’s second rehearsal:
Albina is as confident as every, vocally and in the choreography. We get the now infamous blue/purple lighting and the 80s inspired dresses from both her and her backup dancers.
We get that impressive multiplying shot again and besides the flimsy picking up of her by the dancers, this performance has not many flaws. However, there is not much variety in the staging although it is very polished. In the third run, Albina is getting a bit of pyro, the ones that are silent colorful fireworks.
