There comes a day in every rehearsal process...
Where everyone decides that their efforts are useless
And they want nothing better than to chuck it all
And smash the nearest valuable object
And capoeira their cast members in the face
And cancel the show and everything
And get in their car and start to drive
And take a very long road trip
And stop in some horrible town in the Midwest
And get a job in a diner
And live out the rest of their days a spinster
And never return.
All because they are just a little too close to opening night.
That day was today.

Tomorrow: Actually going to Barnes and Noble. Today was just a ruse.
PS Everything's fine now! Polly had the brilliant idea to use our negative energy to fuel the choreography for the Disaster Sequence, so we worked out our feelings by sweating and convulsing to angsty techno music. Then the cast all went to Dollar Scoop Night, which, we remember, will always be more satisfying and more important than theater.
