Morning comes hard

We're performing The Crucible for a couple of schools tomorrow. At 9:15 am. Call time? 7:45. That isn't even right. Then on with the rest of the run.

We were received well, at least as well as a show like this can be. Family and friends told me, "great performance, too bad we hate The Crucible." Sigh. I guess you can't blame them for that one. It starts off down and takes you on a three hour trip farther downward. There's no light moments. The very few brief ones you can find are instantly crushed by the next line. I guess it's a love it or hate it thing.

One thing I've always hated are matinees. Hate hate hate them. The one saving grace to them is all the senior folks who come out to them. They're always a treat.

The performances themselves were great. Lots of tasty moments on and off stage. Great things I'll remember for years.

I don't want to get up in the morning.

Whats more difficult? Performances for school students who don't care and are distracting you with their texting or matinees for senior citizens who can't hear and are distracting you with their respirators.

Love both but it's SO hard performing for them!
