We opened last night after about a month of an insane rehearsal schedule and even crazier rehearsal locations. It went much smoother than I had anticipated really, I was very worried about tech coming together but there were not any problems that I noticed and the play flew by. I was frantically trying to help poor Megan do all her costume changes because it always seemed we had more time in rehearsal. The only mishap I noticed was when Kerry was waiting behind a curtain before she entered onstage and for no reason the curtain just fell and everyone saw her standing back there waiting. But those are the hilarious things that happen in live theatre that make it better I think. Definitely more entertaining at the very least.
I thought I could have hit some of my own beats better, to be honest I didn't feel comfortable until about halfway through the play which of course is when my part is essentially finished. But I am feeling like next week is going to go much better in terms of my own performance. But too bad for me that there were two reviewers in the audience. Hopefully they didn't take notice of little me.
Sometimes I think that going out and hanging iwth the cast after a show is the best part of performing.
I have effectively slept most of today away, which was my goal. Now I must engtertain Maeby because she was a trooper and laid with me all day. Best dog ever.
