fiftynine minutes wraps
fiftynine minutes is officially over as of last night. It ended with a bang, uh, I mean a slightly woozy feeling in the head after the few big gulps of wine I consumed on an empty stomach *grins*Yes, Brana, I know you saw me refilling my cup a few times.
I've never seen so many people stream out of the Dram before! We had 102 people watch fiftynine minutes on our closing night.
Endings are always emotional. After working with this group of people for a few months, we wrap things up and we say goodbye. Till our next audition. Till our next production. The old familiar faces may or may not show up, the new ones meek at first, but almost immediately will fit right in.
Tash said it right. The Oral Stage is therapeutic. No matter how tired I am after a day's work, I drive like a mad woman on the Federal to (try) be punctual for rehearsals and call time, and end up having a good time there. From physical exercises to vocal and breathing techniques, the walking-aroud-the-space to reading the consonants, the acting like a monkey and trying to count till 40 in one breath, the people, oh god the people.
I'll miss you guys.
Kelvin, when's the next production slated for? Butt itchy.
