When my first relationship broke up after almost eight years, I went back into doing community theater in a big way, and the theater where I worked the most invited me to jooin their volunteer organziation called First Nighters. This group sold concessions, ushered, planned projects to raise money for the theater, assisted at auditions. So, I spent almost all my free time at the theater, and after a year or so, I was elected secretary, a position I retained for about six years. It was a lot of work, but I enjoyed it.
However, as I started doing more shows away from that theater, I didn't have as much time to lend a hand there, so I had to resign. Would you believe since I left First Nighters, I have never been cast in a single show at that theater.
