You know…
Despite everything…I am going to miss this show. Despite the frustrations, and the anger, and the hurt. The complications, the miscommunications, and the grievances. The long talks, and the even longer rehearsals. The changes, the unexpected problems, and everything else….I’m still going to miss it. I love the friends I’ve made in this process. And we’ll always have this. The few of us who understood everything. It’s like a secret club that only we’re a part of. And that’s pretty frickin cool.
And at the end of the day, no matter what happens off stage…that’s not why I do theatre. I do theatre because I love it. I do theatre because it’s where I’m supposed to be and it’s what makes me happier than anything else. So yes, problems arose and a lot of things went wrong. But I still love theatre. And when I’m onstage with my co-star…nothing else matters. It’s just FUN. Which is ultimately what it’s supposed to be. And if I can enjoy something that much when everything around it was in absolute turmoil…then I’d say this is the right career for me.
