Opening Night

Something on the transportation front might actually be breaking but as it’s still in progress, I won’t fully write about it until it goes through. Still, it’s an amount of release which I have badly needed. I hope it works out and soon.

Opening night was fantastic. It was fun and as some of the actors told the “Loman family”, they are really cooking. Our director is pleased and proud and so was the woman who directed the show over twenty years ago. We even got a standing ovation at the curtain call. Every opening night the Pentacle Theatre hosts a catered party for the audience and cast. One of the first women I talked to told me her name was Forsythe, the same name as my character. I was so pleased, we took a picture together. I told her I hoped I was doing the name honor. Another surprise was given by my friends Deborah and Jessie who hadn’t told me they were coming. They even brought me a bouquet of red tulips which I held in my arms for the rest of the night. We have another show tonight, a matinee tomorrow, then I have two days off which sounds good after going for eight days straight. “Hi diddle a dee, an actor’s life for me!”

  1. Great to see you having a good time in front of the footlights! What is this hint of transportation? Schwinn? Being completely utilitarian, I am as interested in the spread put before you after the show as other matters. Again, friend, break a leg!
