It’s Sunday and that means someone is nursing a rather somnolent head today. I say somnolent as opposed to hangover because although I did partake in a few glasses of the devils juice, I was basically sober the entire night. It was just a late one which means I got to bed quite late (or early depending on how you look at it).
This morning I rolled out of bed at twenty minutes to the hour of nine and ducked into the kitchen to put the kettle on and happened to glance at the clock. Crumbs! Was meant to be at the School or Arts at 9 am to help clean up. Needless to say I bounded to the shower hoping to remove some more remnants of Judy Garland’s eye liner left from the night before, but even now I’m still sporting it. All ex foliated from top to toe, a mix of the coffee granules and coffee mate in the thermos and off to Berry Street.
So I enjoyed a good three hours of manual labour, which consisted of me flitting around the theatre with a dustpan and casually sweeping particles of feathers, glitter, fake nails and even a few pieces of carpet whence I do not where they came from. All in all it was a damn good job, because it really looked like I was busy and hard at it. My other friend who I shall call Lavender had got to the job of sweeping first which I was a little bummed out about. That’s one of the best jobs because it is quite therapeutic. Walk sweep walk sweep walk talk talk talk talk oh yes ahh sweep again ....
Last night was a full house and a wonderful success if I do say so myself. Although would you read about it .... I buggered up that bloody song again! I thought I would be really clever and take along my words and read through them before I had to go on stage, surely that would be the sure fire way. Wrong. As I am wandering through the crowd I begin to sing with random words coming out and I’m smiling and shaking my head like it was all part of the show!
Last night and I still just didn’t get it, and to make matters even more deliciously worse; this was the night they video tape the performance!!
All in all a good show, I was offered a role in an upcoming play for 2010 which was lovely. Not sure what the play was about the Director just said that I was perfect for the role due to my “stage presence”. Not quite sure what that means; I am hoping it isn’t a polite word for “up staging”! Sadly I had to return my cloak today as well which has been most upsetting, I guess you could say that I have been disrobed.
As promised ... the exclusive backstage pass. You’ll have the first opportunity to see it and know about it before I shamelessly plaster it all across Facebook.
