Show Day. It was excellent fun to be out doing what we love doing, and the whole team really threw themselves into it. We had time to set up, make blood capsules, have two complete run throughs, and chill out a little. We tried something new, in that we ran the show for free and asked for donations at the end....we did this with the bar as well. In the event, we broke even, which was excellent! The show went better than I could have expected, and we got so much good feedback. I still revel in the whole experience of writing something, and then seeing it develop, and eventually get to performance. Tonight was my favourite so far, and hearing some of the laughter in the appropriate sections, as well as the sharp intake of breath on the other sections was excellent. As usual, they all raised their game, but I have to make a special mention of my eldest who was outstanding. She deserves to do this for a living. On to the festival next, and I hope they can keep the momentum up. We managed to sneak into the local Curry House for a late night meal, but sadly were made to feel rather unwelcome. It is a shame, but I felt that we were treated so shabbily that I will not go in there anymore. We have spent many many hours and a lot of money in there over the years, and deserved a little better.
