Roller Coaster Ride

Working on a show for the community theatre is sort of like being on a roller coaster. One night everything goes great and you feel like you're on top of the world. Other nights, not so much.

For example, last Monday the cast of High School Musical struggled through a rehearsal where we were trying to fix some assorted scenes and dance moves. It was a long, slow process and by the end of the night just about everyone was worn out and a bit aggravated.

The next night, we ran the show all the way through - and it went great! Oh, it wasn't perfect, but everyone could see that the show was almost ready to hit the stage (there's still some minor tweaking to be done). So we're riding high again!

But the next difficult hurdle is coming up - moving into the theater. More on that later!
