Early rehearsals...WHY?!?

So, this morning I am wide awake for a 10 a.m rehearsal. To many, 10 a.m may not sound so early to you, but for an actor and/or singer who often rehearses until 10 p.m, it is an enormous trial to wake up after getting home so late, probably staying up till sunrise, eating and watching youtube videos. In the old days, a diva like myself, would never, EVER be caught dead at a rehearsal before NOON, but with the changing times, and people less willing to deal with a diva's attitude, early rehearsals have become expected.

It will never make sense to me that companies think that singers can be productive and in good voice so early in the morning, and then have evening rehearsals until late. I know many people with 9-5 jobs have to work early, but then they get home at around 6-7 p.m and have the rest of the night to relax. Well, this diva might just have to start a rebellion! A rebellion against early rehearsals!!!
