Check Please!

It's been a while and all I can say is I'VE BEEN BUSY. Being a part of the crew of the play and everything else I've had to handle has had almost overwhelmed. I must say, though, that I'm glad that I decided to become a part of the play.It seems that I'm always thrown in tech. I audition and I don't get cast but Mr Campbell decides I'll be the perfect stage manager or sound director. My ego can't help but be hurt, but then I realize that tech is just as awesome.
Just like The Fantasticks, Check Please was priceless. I have to say, though, my favorite scene was Alenson's. (His facial expressions are absolutely hilarious). Despite this, everyone was amazing. I could tell they completely emcompassed their character. Sometimes while watching I forgot it was my classmate on the stage. I love how the play was short and simple but comedic as well. I think everyone who watched it was very pleasesd by the performance. I know I was. And, to be honest, I wasn't extremely eager to attend dress rehearsals for three hours, but it was worth it. Even though my job was extremely simple, it was also fun, and I love how the song choices brought the play and characters to life even further. (Cheers for Mr. Campbell, the actors, and the crew for the song suggestions).
It was also cool that Glee, which I happen to be a part of, sang Seasons of Love. I thought it was genius that the night began with, and in a sense ended with it.
I hope the musical is just as, if more, fun. And hopefully I'm actually an actor instead of someone in the crew (just saying Mr. Campbell and Ms. Rose).
Oh and a standing ovation for Kevin, the best stage manager I have ever seen. I really believe he was born for that job. I wonder, what would the play be without him?
