Curate, connect, and discover
the moment I start referring to asking if I can leave rehearsal early to work on things for the show at home as "asking for the day off" you know I should be getting paid
me: "Why are my pet peeves your favorite??"
KP: "tiny anger"
me: *malfunctions*
me, holding up the pile of garbage I picked up from the auditorium: I'm going to commit a crime
M: ok
M: as long as I don't see it, it didn't happen
we love being the stage manager and being gone the first full week of working on the show because of a fRICKIN C O L D
I'm dying-
someone- someone come put me out of my misery
I'm so upset
KR: "that went from zero to arson real fast"
I should note I don't think he knows I'm the stage manager and I honestly doubts he knows what that is
but oh, he will learn
so we're preparing for auditions for our first show in my theatre class rn (everyone has to audition for the grade, whether you want to be in it or not)
anyway, we're split into groups to practice our monologues with/to and cuz the teacher trusts me (this is my 4th year doing it after all) I'm with 3 newbies
well one of them likes to sass back when I tell him what to do, I mean he'll do it but I think he doesn't think I should be bossing him around
I am the stage manager
he's gonna need to learn to listen and to respect me real quick

I've already opened 2 energy drinks today and it's only 2nd period... I don't drink energy drinks
this is true
hey guys remember that time when the entire tech/stage crew of the Music Man was sick right after the show last year cuz we worked ourselves to the bone in close quarters but refused to admit any of us were sick until the show was over
normal person: dang it! I'm sick, I guess I have to call into work to tell them I won't be there
theatre kids: IAMNOTSICK IAMNOTSICK IAMNOTSICK
MS, checking her watch: "oh, I think my cat's dying"
me, walking into the costume room for the first time this school year: "It's like the first breath of fresh air in months!!"
