Ahhhh..... Just finished opening weekend of play #1 in the Norman Conquests, and what a weekend (rather, weekEND)! Previews Friday night, rehearsal Saturday day, opening Saturday night, matinee on Sunday, then rehearsal until midnight Sunday night! 'Bout 27 hours at the theater, all told. Why go home? May as well just crash on a cot in the dressing room.... You won't hear any complaints from me, though - I LOVE IT! All in a day's work. Bring it on!!!

No, that's not a line in Living Together. But it became one today. Never ever EVER do I want to hear it again.
On my drive to the theater this afternoon, I thought, "Hmm, I'd like to write something in the blog today, but I'm not sure what to write about." Lo and behold, I gave myself something to write about - when I missed my entrance into a scene today during the matinee of Living Together!
