OPENING NIGHT RECALL

So, some of you may have found our other blogs and stuff, but that doesn't mean we're neglecting the main page. Those are kind of superfluous anyway. We opened tonight in the Chicago suburbs to a very hospitable crowd. And again, probably 1/4 of the house were FOB's, but that doesn't negate the good time that was had by all. I must admit, I was pretty worried because 1/3 of the cast is/was pretty sickly and we had to siwtch some stuff around at the last minute. But it was all well-received for the most part and people had a good time. And that's what it's all about anyways, right? We probably filled 2/3 of the house. Not bad. Considering I never saw a single fucking thing in any newspaper. But I digress. I hope people had fun. They seemed to. They laughed and applauded and no one left at intermission. Can I just tell you how disheartening it is as a performer to have people leave at intermission never to return? You just want to cry in a corner, but the show must go on.

I'm rambling because I'm a wee bit intoxicated. But I just wanted to give a shout out to Austin for all of their support as well as to all of the fine folks who graced us with their presence tonight. I hope y'all had as much fun as we did.

XOXO
