Making sense of things

Cast A's last performance went very well! We all piled into the theater from outside in the rain, loaded in smoothly, gave a good final performance with a quieter audience and a silly young girl in the front row who laughed at almost everything, and we loaded out. I then went into town for lunch with Abby, Connor, Harold, Ron, Paul, and Thomas. Connor, Abby, and I shared our first (and probably last) portion of haggis. The whole company then went to see another high school production called Pippin. It didn't make much sense to me and I am grateful that we have a script to work with that does make sense, however queer, wild, and silly it may be. After Pippin the majority of the cast and crew went to see The Wheel. We all pre-ordered the tickets since the acclaimed National Theater of Scotland company at the "Traverse Theater which, annually offers some of the most exciting new work of the summer"* It messed with all of our minds and I am glad to say that after a long, exciting, great day, sleep has taken the better of me. Goodnight!
