The Theatre, The Theatre, What Happened To The Theatre?

Since I mostly live to work and work to live here's a status update of my wonderful theatre:

1. We hit our single ticket goal for all 7 of our shows this season! I have no idea when the last time we did that was but I guarantee it was over 10 years ago.

2. Last night was our Gala to raise money for the theatre and we blew our goal out of the water. Who says we're in a recession? Give people some dinner on a stage and their pocket books just burst right open.

3. I really want to get everyone at the theatre to learn the dance moves to the High School Musical Song We're All in this Together and have us make a video celebrating our rock star year. I'm sure everyone will love it. Right?

So the Rep is awesome. Duh, we all knew this. That's why I work there.

In other theatre, but not Rep-related news, I'm doing a short 10 min play for Spin the Bottle at Annex. It's like a late night variety show and I'm playing a Euro-trash beauty pageant who is dumber than a box of sticks and gets to do a pretty long stage combat scene. I'm in heaven. I have bruises on my knees and I'm meeting new theatre people and I'm acting again. It's a small step back in the game, but it's a start.
