FULL HOUSE! what now? i was sooooo amazed, it was glorious, we actually had to turn people away opening night! awesooooooome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well, now at least we know well definitely break even :D
backstage went a lot smoother than i thought it would with this size of a cast and so many new people, it was actually really entertaining because of franco's prank calls (something about alhambra trucks and masturbation in ray's bushes)which was hilarious, and the sexual harrasment game that was very very funny even tho i was the first victim of it :D so gus and gaetano now know that collin is indeed bi and actually enjoyed their sexual harrasment. probably the best moment of all backstage memories lmao.
as for how i was feeling myself.....it felt like another rehearsal, except for the occasional laugh of the audience that reminded me they were there. sooooo relieved i wasnt nervous. but omg i wasnt expecting the audience to laugh so much at our song, it was...really really hard to keep a straight face. i think at one point i felt a lot of pain in my nose from trying to not laugh, and thought: there go my sinuses. oh well.
all in all, absolutely fantabulous. the audience laughed in all the spots that they were supposed to,(and in some parts where they WERENT, like during molasses to rum, i dont know who can think thats funny...)and we had very few tech issues (except one broadcast of backstage noise, haha stupid mics)and we improvised very well when we needed to :D
ok. feelin pretty good...off to the matinee!
