Opening Weekend of a Musical

This week has all been dedicated to Thoroughly Modern Millie. Rehearsals all week then three shows this weekend. Running around a lot backstage, moving set pieces, changing costumes, applying lipstickk, and looking like I'm from the 20's. Normal stuff! This show has been a lot of fun and instead of being on stage like I was in Grease I got to re-experience the aspects of being in the chorus.

Chorus Life:
1. Working as a team in a production.
2. Not being upset over what role you got. It's the fact that you are in the show is the big matter and being a great supporting cast to the Leads helps them tremendously and makes the show that much better.
3. Rising above attitudes.
4. Moving set pieces. The door does not like me sometimes and decides to get stuck. Urgh!
5. Meeting a lot of different people who love Theatre as much as you do.

This is also my first show where I got to wear a wig. It's more of a hair piece but meh. Details, details. I thought the opening weekend performances were pretty good. Well, from what I could hear, more like. haha

Three more weekends, and I plan to make my character Cora, a Hotel Priscilla Girl, better each night. Like Stacie and I say: Fighting!

I'm also trying to survive the Finals Crunch month, mostly for Chemistry, Philosophy, and Physics. Let the battle begin! I can take them on!
