So Here We Go Again...

Well, tomorrow is dress rehearsal for my school play. Today was our tech rehearsal, also known as Living Hell.
Well, no one likes a complainer, so I'm going to call it venting.
The extras are doing a skit at intermission. Each one of them has about two or three lines. And they haven't. Memorized. Them.
The length of time it takes you to memorize your lines in this class is directly proportional to the number of lines you have. Specifically, the fewer lines you have, the longer it takes you to memorize them.
Our stage is about three feet deep. Since the play takes place in a high school, the set includes cardboard lockers, which people keep knocking down.
We rehearse once a week. Need I say anything else?
Contrary to what it may appear, I am actually enjoying this play. I have the lead, and it's a pretty fun play. It's called Just for Kicks, and don't worry, you haven't heard of it. No one has heard of it. It isn't Pulitzer material. But it's fun.
However, my life has a habit of falling to pieces the day of tech rehearsal. A year ago (Alice in Wonderland), my grandmother was in ICU. This year one of my best friends is going through some really, really hard times. I am incredibly stressed out because of it, so I was completely and totally disoriented today. So I felt like crap and probably looked like crap. Hooray.
I don't know where I'm going with this. But any prayers and thoughts would be appreciated this week. |

Sometimes a really bad show can make a really good performer look even better!
