e_julianaWe open tonight.
Someone tell me that it's going to be funny, that people will laugh, and that the gay community won't be horribly offended by all of the nuances I managed to miss?
Someone tell me that all of the tech that massively screwed up last night will be good tonight, and even if it's not, the audience will be so entertained that they won't care?
I think I'm starting to panic.
I hate this part. This is the worst part. It's almost totally out of my hands, but not yet, so I think I still have time to fix it. I don't.
I know why this tech kicked my ass. It's the biggest (both mentally and physically) show I've ever done.
In show news, the run went pretty well last night. The actors are soooooo ready for an audience. So ready. Desperate and begging, even. It's a shame that the tech is not at the same level, but there you go. Tech flubs are forgivable, poor acting &/or directing is not.
We were done by 10, and the entire cast went to the pub across the street for booze & food. I sort of wanted them to go home and REST, but I think the group time was good for everyone.
Today, I have to:
Finish up my work (here at work)
Go to Rainbow Road for gifties
Figure out appropriate music to use for certain dead transitions (I do suck at those)
Burn all of the cues onto new sound CD's
Do yoga, at the very least
Write out thank you notes
Go to the show and not wince like a mad thing when anything goes wrong
Drink and eat and be pleasant at the gala (and not roll my eyes at my producers. *Such* a dysfunctional team they are.)
I really am so very nervous, it's pathetic. But thank you all so much for your support.
