Wow! Long time, no see. About a week and a half to be exact! So sorry. I hope you amazing readers will forgive me and cut me some slack (but I know you will because you’re awesome).
Anyway, as you probably know if you were reading my blog before my little hiatus, I have had a busy couple weeks! I knew this blog would take a hit but I definitely wasn’t planning to neglect it completely.
Tech week for The Music Man started Saturday the 11th and boy was it busy. We worked on the set all day Saturday and Sunday then had a cue-to-cue Sunday night. I got up bright and early Monday morning because I was featured with a few other cast members on Good Day Columbus! Then Monday through Thursday we had dress rehearsals every night. Call was at 6 pm and by the time we ran the whole show and went over notes, we didn’t leave till 11 pm most nights.
And then… drum roll please… We opened! We had a fantastic opening weekend! We performed to 2 sold out crowds. One on Friday night and one on Sunday matinee. And our Saturday show was pretty close to being sold out. Can I just say? Performing to a live audience is one of the most rewarding things ever!
We have 2 more weekends of shows, but we don’t have any more mandatory rehearsals in between. So maybe I’ll have a little more time for blogging and reading and other things I want to do for the rest of the month. However, my in-laws are coming to visit this weekend, so I will be spending this week getting ready for them. Especially since I’ve pretty much neglected house work and laundry and everything that didn’t have to do with work or The Music Man over the last week.
So anyway, that’s what I’ve been up to over the past week or so. Honestly, I’ve been so busy I can’t believe all this happened in just a week and a half. Again, I hope you’ll forgive me for being a little MIA. And now it’s your turn! Catch me up on what’s been going on in your life!
Thanks for reading!
