Busy Life=Abandoned Blog

Why does it seem like every post is an apology for never posting?! Ok, I'll make this one short and sweet, and just cut to the chase. Sorry. I don't know how I'll gather my dreamed loyal gathering of readers at this rate. Oh well. Live and learn, right? Well anyway, my musical just finished up and I don't know how to say it any other way than IT WAS ONE HELLUVA SHOW! It was Grease, so the bar was set pretty high. We completely pulled it off though! Aside from opening night, something went wrong with the cast each day we performed it. Our Danny lost his voice the second night, couldn't sing at all. Yup. No understudies either. Luckily, one of the other amazing T-Birds jumped in for him and performed his heart out. Couldn't have asked for a better group of actors to perform with. I and my onstage-boyfriend got to take second place at the "Hand Jive Dance Contest," which I daresay was the highlight of my individual performance. Anyway, the crowd loved it, it was a blast to put on, and it taught us how to navigate the sticky situations that stage theatre often presents. What more could we ask for in a show? I think all that's left to say now is: GREASE IS THE WORD!

Oh the fantastic fifties.
One of my many weeknesses.
