I'm back from a lovely opening night party at Angus McIndoe. I think the show went amazingly well, not because it isn't wonderful but because so many anticipated glitches didn't occur. The sound problems were solved and the band sounded clear and bright, and the musicians danced, no they boogied, right along with the cast and action; the cast was having fun, I do believe, but more importantly, I think the audience for the most part had a lot of fun. My friends seemd to like it a lot, and they can be very critical. I knew there was no problem with BK's direction but I was worried over how the scene changes would go and they mostly flowed quite well.
As to the cast, I think the characters are endearing and played by ingratiatng actors with a lot of skills they get to show off, and I want this show to run for a long long time.
The party was wonderful; I met lots of friends and family of the cast, and I was thrilled that our DR Jose came along. I enjoyed everyone's company and I love this company.
Are we a hit? I hope so, but I'm too close to the production.
