third quarter

the time has come to write about the most amazing and terrible thing that happens every year: third quarter. last year, third quarter was about two major shows opening at the same time, not having a floor, hanging every unit in the building, and running out of twofers. it was also about not sleeping for days, 20 hour calls and general ridiculousness.

this year, third quarter is once again COMPLETELY ridiculous, but it is not quite as equal opportunity as it was last year, meaning that elx can help out tp. SO: for the last four days, I have been at the theatre everyday for 19-20/24 hours and I have worked three overnights back to back.

however, as bad and terrible as it may be, when you look around you and you see all your friends, whatever their major or focus, helping out on whatever needs getting done you realize why you do theatre.

and that's awesome.
