I have admit it, I've been really depressed lately. I think I'm grieving the loss of the Mockingbird cast. Most of us still see each other around campus, but it's different. Instead of an almost familial relationship, we've been thrust back into acquaintance-land.
Maybe that makes no sense if you haven't experienced something similar.

Welcome to the WORST part of any theatre experience...having to say good-bye to the story, the lifestyle, the characters, "Maycomb", and even to some of the people we hung out with 5-10 hours a day for TWO weeks!! Every new play it gets harder...especially when the cast was as AMAZING as this last one.
I got a lot of my tears out during the cast party...and when we were destroying the world of Maycomb. A lot of actors need their "funeral" for the play...and that is the stricking of the set, but for me it didn't work.
Michael... I know how you are feeling and it will suck for a while. We were actually talking about getting together ever Wed. night for an ascent warm-up! I don't think there has been a day gone by that I haven't looked at pictures from ALL of our performances. Now I know why plays run for years...it is for the actors...lol!!

I hear you, man. My re-entry into the world of academics isn't going well. Mari's got the blues. I spent 8 hours writing a 3 page paper on Monday...then yesterday I sat around in my pajamas crocheting and watching Firefly. ALL DAY. Ha. So much for "reading week."
