More about the Play – “Titus Andronicus”

I can’t believe we are halfway through our performances! We have 3 more this week-end. I was nervous opening night but most everything went well and the performance was awesome. The first night one of the main characters ripped out the crotch of his pants.  Not to be mean but it was funny. He was laughing about it afterwards but I know he was stressed when it happened – he wasn’t wearing any underwear! Luckily, the awesome costume lady was on hand to stitch up his pants. Then as my scene partner and I were going on for a scene where we have to tie some people up, my scene partner fell as he entered the stage. Yikes! But we just kept going and the scene (which had been troublesome for me before because I have to tie someone up and gag them, then drag them off stage) turned out great. Finally, in the last scene of the show, Titus, who only is supposed to have one hand at this point, forgot to put his stump on (which hides his hand) so he had to really hide his hand up in his sleeve. I don’t think anyone noticed and the final scene was spectacular. The wife of one of the performers was taking pics of the play and they are awesome. I wish I had some to post. There was a cool party after the show. I didn’t get home until 4am – these theatre people like to party!

 

My husband and stepson came to the second performance. I was a little nervous because I wasn’t sure how they would like the play, specially my stepson. I wasn’t sure how he would take to the Shakespearean dialogue but they both really liked the play. I was happy they enjoyed it. The guy who ripped out his pant’s crotch the night before actually did it again!  Hahaha. He was wearing underwear this time though. "SEMPRE UBI SUB UBI"

 

Saturday night’s performance went well also, although this time I fell. It was the same scene that my scene partner fell in, pretty much as we enter the stage. It was all I could do to keep from laughing and I can’t imagine how the other performers kept a straight face. "Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down" – yeah right! Hahaha. I am thinking next time he should fall and then I will run into him and fall over him.  The scene turned out all right though. I actually got to have beard for that performance. A fellow cast mate put one on me with make-up. It was funny. The guy who plays Aaron kept laughing at me the whole night. He said he wouldn’t have thought I could look like such a man – a pretty man, but still convincing. He said I looked like George Michael. I think another cast mate thought he was on crack but whatever – most cast members and the director liked my beard.

SO, is the economy stimulated yet?

My husband and I planned to stimulate the economy and use our stimulus check as part of a down payment on a new(er) car but my old car still has some life yet (knock wood) so we may just hold on to our money for a while. Methinks that George W’s plan is not going to work all that well. It is going to take a whole lot more than just one check to stimulate our economy. The U.S. needs some good jobs for people! Something with some staying power and affordable healthcare. If we don’t have good paying jobs we might as well go socialist and send out checks monthly and give everyone free healthcare.
