I dreamed my show through all night long. I kept half waking up and looking at my bedside clock and wondering when we could go home. I wanted to go home so bad. I had never wanted to go home so bad in my life as I did laying in my own bed, pushing imaginary sliders, wondering why I was running a show in my underwear, wondering how I was going to get that motherfucker off the stage and away from my actors in my underwear, wondering how I was going to ride my scooter home in my underwear. The show kept getting longer and longer, I sat in bed bringing up lights and sequencing video and switching live feed wires until I sobbed. I still couldn't stop doing it. I didnt actually go to *sleep* sleep until around 5. I then had a short dream about Molly throwing pizza dough in a custom kitchen from the sixties.
The amazing thing about theater is that you usually can't tell the show where the tech was barely finished by the time the house was set to open, or a costume was made from scratch that morning, or that the stage manager threatened someone with their life last night from a show where the design was done and the lights were on the grid a week ago , and the actors have already had 4 dress runs and a sneak preview for the family, and the cast is entirely sober. Sometimes you can, but most of the time it's a play, and it's a good play or it's a bad play no matter how far behind you are.
I need cough drops and decongestant and a hug from somebody who doesn't give a shit about theatre.
Posted by Sonya at November 14, 2002 09:22 AMI have called a show wearing only boxers. Standing, alone, in a tiny booth in a 60 seat theatre in Florida.
It's quite liberating.
Oh honey. I'm not saying I havent called a real life show in my underwear. this is the glory of Con Works. I'm just saying that running a dream show in your real underwear isnt fun, and its also the longest show ever. I am so sad.
Posted by: sonya at November 14, 2002 10:38 AMI'm the perfect person to give you a hug in this situation.
Posted by: Erin at November 14, 2002 11:27 AMI open tonight too. I also dreamed about the show last night and couldn't sleep. I would give you a hug - but I DO give a shit about theatre. Is it still okay?
In other news, I have light-opped a show in my undies. It was nice.
Posted by: freesia at November 14, 2002 11:58 AMA professional stage manager I know got married a few years ago, and her wedding morning was a technical disaster. The flowers were wrong, there was a mixup at the site, and the seamstress delivered the bridesmaid dresses an hour before the ceremony, unhemmed and with no zippers. Jen said she spent the last hour of her unmarried life chugging Diet Pepsi and Mylanta, sewing girls into dresses and doing her own hair, and it never occurred to her that she could ask for more time. In Stage Manager World, you get that bitch teched and you get those girls out there and it all looks great and nobody knows the difference. Everyone says, "Isn't she a lovely bride?"
