One more time

Tomorrow's matinee performance will be the last performance of this first ever run of the play "My Dead Clown". As with any play I have been in, it's a bittersweet time.  It will be a relief to have it all over although it has been a lot of fun.  I have made some new friends, renewed some aquaintances, and made people laugh.  That's all good. One thing that alway happens at the end of a production is striking the set.  Immeidately after our final curtain call tomorrow, we will all pitch it to dissassemble the set, clean the dressing rooms and back stage areas, and generally leave the theater looking like the play has never happened at all. It's hard to see it all go away but it also makes it very final. One more fun thing with this play - when a new play is first published in book form, the original cast is listed in the book. So, who knows, perhaps my name will be in a book one day. "Alice Warner played by Luci Foltz."
