Opening Night!!!!!
GUESS WHAT EVERYBODY!!!!!
Last night was opening night for Finian’s Rainbow!!!!!! Can you beleive it!?!?! It went really really well (I know why though– it was Friday the 13th– super lucky day for theatre!)!
The only problem was that I still have a dreadful cough, so when I went up to sing my solo song in the show (’Necessity’), I could hardly take a big breath. Not to mention that I coughed ALL THE TIME during the show. When I said my lines, my voice was so hoarse that I sounded like a young smoker. Oh yay. Well, at least the setting in the show is a tobacco-growing community that sells to Lucky Gold cig. company!
This morning, when I woke up, my throat was so stffy and so was my nose so I couldn’t really breathe that well. I’m almost all better though!
I love opening night. It’s thrilling. Your adrenaline just gets pumping like craaaaazy, it’s so awesome!!! It’s also soooooo such fun to look at people in the front rows and give them a GIGANTIC grin. It’s so cool. People look at you like ‘woaaaah cool!’.
I love theatre!!
HEEEEEYYYYYY– did you ever notice that theatre can be spelled 2 ways:
theatER —and— theatRE.
I totally prefer the second one– it’s more classy looking.
ANyoneANyone!!!!! Buy tickets for Finian’s!!! Go to the Jones Library in Amherst or visit www.arenacivictheatre.org , then click UPCOMING PRODUCTIONS.
WOO HOO I’m excited!!! I’m saving my voice all day today (only speacking when absolutely necessary, like if my head falls off or something like that!), so I’m using this weekend as an opportunity to learn American Sign Language.
Love and excitement!!!!!
