Or perhaps weak minds...........

Which would make us twice a weak.

TCB is the show over or does it come back next weekend?

Yes, we have one more weekend. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Can you tell us why you were angry?

dang I feel like the jerk in that joke

TCB · « **Reply #136 on:** April 21, 2014, 08:22:05 PM »

It will probably sound stupid to you. Our director (and the school's Artistic Director) is always talking about trying to impart professionalism into the students. Yet, on Preview night, we were supposed to start at 7:00 p.m., which meant the House was supposed to open at 6:30. Instead at two minutes to seven he has us on stage while he tries to decide what to do for a curtain call. Meantime, the people who came as guests for the Preview, are still stuck out in the lobby at five minutes after seven.

vixmom · « **Reply #137 on:** April 21, 2014, 08:22:39 PM »

How do you keep a jerk in suspense?

I'll tell you later

yes that would definitely have annoyed me - don't preach "professionalism" and then demonstrate amateur behavior like that

TCB · « **Reply #139 on:** April 21, 2014, 08:26:38 PM »

Okay, previews are basically rehearsals. So opening night comes around, and again the director is fiddling around, and doesn't get the House open until 6:57. And these people were paying the real bucks to be stuck out in the lobby. And, of course, because of this; we started about ten of fifteen minutes late!!

No the way to teach the young people about professionalism. And it threw my whole performance off.

vixmom · « **Reply #140 on:** April 21, 2014, 08:27:17 PM »

Also it is guaranteed to hurt the actors as they are now playing to an audience of annoyed people instead of to a group that have found their seats , read through their program and gotten settled and ready to see the show and unless there is assigned seating you also now have a rush for the "best seats" really annoying those who came early to be sure of getting a seat in their preferred location

TCB · « **Reply #141 on:** April 21, 2014, 08:28:14 PM »

I know it is silly, but it made me mad.

Exactly!

I think you had good reason to be angry - and how did the director not address curtain calls before? Were there no full dress rehearsals?

TCB · « **Reply #144 on:** April 21, 2014, 08:29:52 PM »

And now that you know, you may go to bed.

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday I kept harping about setting a curtain call, and he kept delaying it.

TCB · « **Reply #146 on:** April 21, 2014, 08:32:52 PM »

And after all that, we ended up doing a company bow.

TCB · « **Reply #147 on:** April 21, 2014, 08:39:16 PM »

Anyway, I am over it now.

TCB · « **Reply #148 on:** April 21, 2014, 08:40:06 PM »

Wow, we are close.

TCB · « **Reply #149 on:** April 21, 2014, 08:40:44 PM »

Thank you for asking, Vixmom.
