opening weekend

Whew! 225 posts back, and I think I'm mostly caught up from the past two days. Thank goodness this was the last of the two-day Jewish holidays this month.

Opening weekend of my show went very well. I had people come to see me both nights, which I always love, and everyone seemed to enjoy the show a lot. All of my bits went smoothly, and I even got a few laughs. It'll be really nice to have the week off, but weird not to see everyone every day -- I really like my cast. It is nice not to have to change my clothes nine times in two hours for another few days, though. I was telling [livejournal.com profile] bex77 today -- usually, whatever I wear for a show, I have a tendency to wring the opposite direction in my off time between performances. If I'm playing a guy, I dress more feminine. If my costume is formal, I go extra casual. But in this show, I have such a range of costumes, I don't know what I want to not be now!

Got to see The Margaret Ghost this afternoon, and it was even better than I expected. Which is saying quite a lot, considering how much I loved the script, and how much I know to expect from all the people involved. Quite possibly the best show T@F has done so far, I think.

Well, the obvious answer is to run around naked for a few days, but I'm guessing that's just too obvious for you to actually consider.

Oooh, much better. This has the added bonus of being awarded gratuitous vacation days from work if you start to smell funny. (Though presumably, you are still allowed to change your underwear.)

Sure, if you say so. I'm not the boss of your underwear. What you do with your underwear is your own business.

I think I'm gonna go to the closing performance for you guys. I can't wait! Glad to hear the opening weekend went well.

Us too -- yayy!!!

And even though I am only peripherally involved, I will say yay and thank you for the compliment to TMG. I'm proud of 'em, too. (Particularly Mr. James Nathan, that smarmy little bastard.)

Thanks! I'm looking forward to seeing your show this Saturday.
