8\/16Show Recap<\/strong><\/p>\n

So last night show went well despite some a technical issue in the opening sketch (key music did not play) and the fact that the main actor in a skit forgot his lines and skipped to his lines at the end of the skit, thus cutting out the entire middle. It happened during a skit about tolerance when a white trash guy and his girlfriend interrupt a tolerance symposium wanting to talk about how he’d also been oppressed. The symposium featured an Asian guy, two lesbians, some black people and an Arab woman, and he skipped over choice bits as him telling the Asian guy, “Did you guys ever think to put a railroad here? NO. We gave you the idea and you stole all the credit!”; him telling the black people, “Speaking of railroads, what’s up with your underground railroad? For your information, it ain’t a railroad if it don’t have trains. And furthermore…isn’t an underground railroad called a subway?”; him telling the lesbians, “What have you ever contributed other than softball, really really bad poetry and the female mullet?” Regardless, what worked was that they all recovered and still made the skit look like a complete skit, even though it made me look like I didn’t understand skit arcs.<\/p>\n

The best part of the show was just doing it. That was the first time I had directed for stage and I was really proud of the show, the performances of the cast and the overall energy and vibe of everything. I hope people who were in the audience enjoyed themselves. The cast was glowing afterwards because they felt that they had really showed themselves in a good light, and I felt like a little league mom, running around backstage telling everyone how amazing they were.<\/p>\n

The worst part of the show, was when the tiny spaghettie strap to my top broke. I’m up in the booth next to the tech station running the video camera, but the only way up and down is by a ladder. So instead of using the steps, I usually get down to the first step and leap the 4 feet down. We’ll I kept running up and down and finally, I must have ripped it because I go running through the lobby and suddenly realize my left boob is damn near hanging out.<\/p>\n

And the only reason I realized it, was because one of our actors, Mike (The Sausage Man) takes one look at me and announces, “Why’s everyone’s girlfriends running around with their boobs hanging out?”<\/p>\n

Overall, great night. Felt so good about this, felt affirmed in my creative aspirations, and was so proud of everyone that we had such a strong product to show for all of our hard work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
