*dies*
Just got back from the opening night of our play (Mmmbeth), I'm very tired. We got tons of laughs though! I didn't think it would be THAT successful, what with it being a parody of the darkest play in history, Macbeth! It's half over now, just tomorrow. ^^
Here's a recap of the day:
Arrival at 5:00PM, chug some water, smile laugh - get changed into costume.
Make-up time, 5:15PM, get together my stuff!
5:20PM, make-up interrupted by Corbett (the director), ten people in the make-up room at a time. I let other's go and finish, I reserve my seats for my mother, father, grandmother and grandfather. Front-and-center! Gotta pick my mum from the audience in scene 13.
5:25PM, tie up my hair, chat with Kate and Kenan.
5:35PM, now it's make-up time. Bags under my eyes, mascara, stage blush and make my hair nice and raggity.
5:50PM, go and sign cards for the Crew, Corbett, and his student teachers, chat, run away - go on a man hunt.
6:30PM, get backstage! People start to arrive. Get nervous, head to the Gym to do some meditation before warm-ups.
6:35PM, Wylie comes and interrupts my meditation by running across the Gym.
6:40PM, everyone comes down, start warm-ups. Cross-crawls, hook-ups, rag doll, brain-buttons, ear massage, lime-face-lemon-face, Fee fie something or other, steps, and some other stuff.
6:55PM, backstage again, Corbett does his opening spiel, Preview players get into place.
7:30PM, Preview Players done, 15 minute intermission.
7:45PM, Feature Presentation
7:55PM, first time on stage
8:39PM, my big scene
8:58PM, finishing up. Take our bows, my dad gives me flowers back stage (in front of everyone, how embarrassing) we change out of our costumes, and we're off.
