Back after a hiatus
Hard to believe how quickly time can pass when your life is occupied with so many other things. I've barely had time to sleep lately.
The play is going very well. We're into our second week and the audiences are loving it. They're laughing, which is really important when you're doing a comedy. A comedy without laughter...not a good sign!
Being as this is my first directorial attempt, I was nervous to the point of nauseousness. But, that is now subsiding.
Even with all of the preparation that I had done before, there were so many other things that I didn't fully expect. I can now appreciate what a director goes through just to keep his/her sanity. I'm thinking ALOT of alcohol, but that's my opinion (just kidding)!
I must confess that I will be glad when the play has run its course. I'm looking forward to at least a little time off. Maybe a week or two. But I guess what I'm really looking forward to is not worrying about every aspect of the play. The lights, the sound, the music, the props, the set, transportation of the set, the wardrobe, ticket sales, venues, advertising, posters, etc., etc. See what I mean? The list doesn't end. Hence the reason I haven't slept much lately.
It may be a few weeks before I can update the site and get back to some sense of normalcy. But, what's life without a little conflict? Just another day as far as I'm concerned and that wouldn't be any fun!
So, better get back at it before my brain starts to melt again. I just got it back to the point where I can make a somewhat rational thought! Even that's starting to fade.
