Successful Drama

20140406-223845.jpg

The play was a great success. We had a nearly sold out house on Friday night, and though it wasn’t quite as full on Saturday night, we had a more responsive crowd. The girls did better than I ever could have hoped. They are teenagers, so it wasn’t perfect, but they did as I said and they covered it well. All the practice and hard work paid off.

After a week of working no less than fifteen hours a day and appending my spring break the week before getting the set ready, I slept most of yesterday. My body was so tired, I was aching all over. However, I am glad that we also raised a fair amount of money for charity. Because the play we did had a fair amount to do with diabetes, we raised money for the American Diabetes Association.

I am so incredibly proud of my drama club, I just can’t say it enough.

A few notes, I’m not going to say which play because i need to remain anonymous. Also, the picture above is most likely from a production of “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.” I’d love to do a Tennessee Williams play sometime, whenever I convince some boys to be in the plays.

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's.
