Hey, it was opening night
To my fellow actors in Rashomon, and to the people I know who came to see the show,
Hi.
So, hey, we just had opening night.
We're in this show together, right?
I'm in this show, and you guys came to see it, right?
And you SAW ME, RIGHT?
And, hey. I'm just like you. I'm wearing a bunch of traditional Japanese clothing in layers like you guys, and I'm wearing the same caked-on mask-like make-up like you guys. But unlike you guys, I have BLACK SHIT ON MY TEETH that I have to brush out, along with a FUCK TON OF PINS IN MY WIG so it doesn't go flying off when I'm fuckin' onstage doing my fuckin' shit.
So YEAH. We're gonna take a bit of time after the show changing into our regular clothes and washing the make-up off our faces. But I take longer cleaning up and putting myself together after the show. I figure, hey. I'm doing this shit, I'm taking this shit in my mouth for 2 hours so WE can have a good show. The LEAST you guys can do is wait for me while I'm trying to look presentable. Right?
So.
Why is it, that when I FINALLY get all the MILLIONS OF PINS out of my wig so I can fuckin' take if off my head, when I FINALLY brush the BLACK SHITTY TASTING SHIT off my teeth, when I FINALLY wash the CAKE TON of my make-up off my face, when I FINALLY change out of my four layers of costume, and I'm walking out to TALK TO YOU GUYS to say THANK YOU FOR COMING TO SEE THE GODDAMN SHOW I'M IN THAT YOU JUST WATCHED, I see you all WALKING AWAY moving to leave?
WHY?
Yeah.
THANKS SO MUCH for waiting, guys.
It's not like we're in the same show or anything.
It's not like I have any friends who support me in this or anything.
god.
fuck.
