Hello Everyone!
Opening Night went so well! A big thank you to all of the people who came to see us perform last night. You were a wonderful audience and I know that we all appreciated the support. The show just gets better and better each night. Of course, there are still a few tiny things that we need to fix but the overall picture is very effective. Mary Kathryn Withers (Meg) told us last night that her sister was coming to the show, who loves the story of Little Women. Kathryn overheard her sister telling her friend that Little Women was one of her favorite books of all time and she hoped that this play didn't ruin it for her. Well, I don't think we ruined it for her considering she came up to all of us after the show and told us how much she loved it. The praise that came from Kathryn's sister and others made all of us feel wonderful. Performing in a show is one of the biggest natural highs I think a person could get. There is so much energy and excitement when we all come out for the bows at the end, it's just incredible. I was almost in tears last night from all the joy and love I felt from the audience. It is an amazing feeling quite unlike anything else you might experience. I think that is why it is also so hard to go to sleep after a show. There's too much fire and energy inside you to just go home, which is why so many of us went to Brickhouse last night to celebrate Opening Night. We all ordered drinks and appetizers and shared stories from the night's experiences. We were really goofy and hyper, especially me. I ordered for Chrissy because she was on the phone and I told the waitress that she would like the spinotch dip. What I meant to say was the spinach and artichoke dip, but by about midnight I was obviously having trouble speaking. Chrissy and I found this hilarious, however, I think the waitress was a little less amused. :) Anyway, a great time was had by all and I'm sure the rest of the run will bring just as much excitement and fun. Well, I have to go soon to get ready for another show tonight, so I will update some more later! Thanks for reading!

THX for sharing all of this with the world. It's fascinating to learn all the details about what goes on "beind the scenes" - also, I never knew there was to much to remember outside of your "lines" - telling us about the ROAD MAP was truly enlightening!
