Last Song: Closer - The Chainsmokers Feat. Halsey

lol we were wildinnnnnnn that rehearsal!

we made many inside jokes and funnies

The most crazy Queue To Queue I've done:

so, the actors decided instead of just skipping over scenes by having their first and last line, to give a summary of what happened in their scene, sparking lines such as "so I'm sad and I hate you" and "well, my dad left me. Time to leave!"

other times, due to such quick changes, some actors would mess up their costume changes. An actor arrived onstage with his jacket practically on his face. Another abandoned their high heels and stood on tip-toe half the time.

I also got to RickRoll everyone during the sound check.

I literally posted nothing about our show but you can follow along with the quotes I submitted to whatislifebesidesrehearsal!

I loved this show, the new grade 8s were so amazing...

*After the last show*

Tech team and Stage Manager: *singing along to ‘Counting Stars’ by OneRepublic while cleaning up*

Actors: *crying*

Stage Crew: *awkwardly trying to move set pieces without disturbing crying actors*

Ok reblogging this because IMMEDIATELY afterwards when I was putting back props and stuff, even made an announcement to the actors on our cast group chat, some actors decided to just leave their props and costumes lying around! This is how mishaps happen!

Since the night show was done and everyone was talking and whatever and getting food from our concession stand, I was running props back, and an actor had a prop. I told them to put it in the props box, but they didn't. I hope they didn't take it home.

SPEAKING of things people took home, I couldn't find my charger block, and I don't think I left it out in the open, so the sound designer pinged everyone in the cast group chat to tell them I lost my charger but no one's gotten back to them yet.

Show Update!

First night show one and done, woo! Still got one more night show tho...

Also, one of the main leading actors was delivering a monologue towards 3 other characters and accidentally did one of their names our of order so just said "and you" but it worked! (I don't think the crowd remembered anyways)

Also, we got our concession stand selling overpriced snacks for the 'experience' so I hope we can get back at least as much as a bucket of paint :/

one litre of paint was like 50 bucks :(

Dear Valued Customer...

Why did you put a 4-pack of ginger beer on the bottom shelf of aisle 6 with the almonds. I'm just confused.

More Willie pictures. July-August 2021.

There was one actor that was on stage crew like twice and was like 'She always communicated with me!' like im sorry bro were you TECHNICALLY the ONLY PERSON on stage crew for a super set-heavy and tech-heavy show? Did you have to paint multiple set pieces last minute during tech week? I don't think so.

My stress inducing director is gone!

She decided to move to another school and didn't tell us, just like how she never told me whenever the show order changed. It hasn't really sunk in yet, but I am relieved. That woman was the cause of so much of my anxiety and she is finally gone.

Some of the actors are like: "omg she was so nice!!!". Honey, please. "She communicated with me so well!!!" Seriously?

Ah, the duality of man.

Anyways, we're getting a different drama teacher to run our theatre company this year, so that's gonna hopefully be fun.

I have some great news to tell my therapist.
