Closing Night

All my labors have ended. The show is done. I woke up all last night thinking I had to be at the theater and then (thankfully) realized this morning I was done. Typical. Now I get actor's nightmares.

This has truly been an amazing learning experience. I made some wonderful new friends and strengthened existing friendships. We all found some real moments here and there. As for myself, I feel that I learned so much about trusting and caring for my fellow actors. There is a complete energy exchange that takes place with your other actors. When it’s flowing, like an electric charge, it’s something that is palpable and truly remarkable.

Now, for the next two weeks, I can just come home and relax. See my family and just settle.

Then of course we start in our Light Night of Comedy over the summer. Honestly after this show I feel like some comedy would be well worth sinking my teeth into.
