The morning (afternoon) after
Oh man, what a night. The show went great last night. We had a lot of fun with it, and there were a few pranks pulled. The first prank was pulled by me, and all the victims were delighted. At the start of the musical I also have a small part as a wino, I'd been using a prop bottle in a brown paper bag all week, and during the second number, several people rob the bottle from me and pretend to drink. Last night people were shocked to find I had brought out a bottle of Bourbon in my paper bag, people's reactions were quite funny, and more people took the bottle than normal. When Simon, who was playing Mushnik, was getting pushed into the plant, after the first push he hopped up and shouted 'Hey, what are you doing? Trying to kill me?' Lots of the crew nearly had a heart attack then, but then Rob (Seymour) pushed him again and in he went. The puppet of the plant rests on a bathtub with one end cut off, and whenever the plant eats someone, they slide through this bath tub. At some stage Connor, the puppeteer, put water in the tub, so everyone who got eaten got soaked. In retaliation to that one, after the show when Connor came back to the green room, several people soaked him with water then coated him with talcum powder.
I was quite consistent with my mistakes tonight, it seems that every second entry I had was one beat off, but it wasn't as bad as Wednesday night, Kev informed me yesterday that I had managed to skip three pages of 'Git it' without noticing.
It took ages to get the set down, and people were sipping drinks the whole way through. I was dragging massive wall panels about, necking a bottle of bourbon. Once we were finished I headed to my house where I had a quick shower and change, had half a bottle of Miller and a burger, I then joined up with everyone in The Roost. Had a pint and pleasant conversation there and then we all moved off toward the house party. Eoin, Simon and I stopped in my house along the way where I grabbed my alcohol and a couple of cigars, I finished the beer I had started earlier and sparked up one of my cigars, a Romeo Y Julieta Romeo No. 3. When we got to the party I finished my cigar and Simon began the one I had given him. Then I had a couple more beers. Then I pulled out the Bourbon and was necking that for a while, wandering around, having pleasant chats with people, the music got hooked up to my Archos and it was my Party playlist on shuffle. After a while I went up to the toilet, and nearly fell asleep, I was in there for ages because I was too tired to get up, but I eventually did, came down, grabbed my stuff and went home to bed.
It was a good night, and I was fairly drunk, but not so drunk that people would think I'm the kind if guy who hang out in Supermac's.
Now I'm still tired, but more hungry, and fairly thirsty too so I'm going to get up. I'd love to meet up with the cast and we all go out for a massive breakfast in the Rye, A day hanging out with the cast would be great right now, but probably won't materialise.
