The End

I cannot believe it's over. Just wow!

I am amazingly blown away by how well everything came together, here are my thoughts on the different nights;

Night One

As an Actor: 

things were hectic, we had had an actor fall ill and were rushing to have a replacement learn the lines. but other than that things went well, befor the curtain opened. Once the curtain opened we were fine, a couple of time actors forgot their lines, myself included, but we improvised and moved along, it was a good night to get out the jitters, as the theater was only half full.

As a Stage Manager: 

things were uncertain, we hadn't shown the lights to the directors yet and most of our crucial staff had never done that job before. but we just hoped for the best. As the show went on, things got better, though because the sound and lights were on the same circuit, the lights started to flicker and we recieved a slight static in the sound devices.  the night went well and we closed curtain like a charm.

Night Two:

As an Actor: 

again we had the same member sick, but his replacement from the night before was ready and we stayed play on. Right before the play began, I carried on my tradition of standing in the middle of the stage and saying "MacBeth". the curtain opened, no one forgot their lines and the night went awesomely. 

As a Stage Manager:

After my ritual of saying MacBeth on stage, we brought the lights up and the show began. We had worked out the light and sound issue from the previous night out and the night went swimmingly. It was perfect, we fluctuated lights with the music, used different colors to set the mood and most importantly, made the scenes transition perfectly.

All in all I'm happy we succeeded and that I was able to provide a key role. Next year should be even better!
