That’s why I’m easy, easy

That’s why I’m easy, easy like a Sunday morning

I love that post-performance-ecstasy-like-feeling. You know, when you’ve had a really great show and that feisty adrenaline just won’t leave your system, and it colors everything else you do. Anyway, Friday was opening night for Mass Murder at the NW Actor’s Studio. It was… okay. Not great, not horrible… pretty small house. (Pretty small house with a reviewer in it. Ugh.) But, it was nice to have that stress out of the way.

So, last night was performance #2. We were a bit afraid of the “Saturday Night Slump”, but it was nowhere to be seen. Since our run is culminating in a filming session (our play is becoming a movie, of sorts,) we get notes throughout the run. (I know some people hate this, but I LOVE it.) 3 of the 5 actors (myself included) had our best performance so far. My only note from the director: “You were fantastic tonight. I don’t have a single note for you - it was like you had a breakthrough and fixed everything!” Obviously, this is a good kind of note to get. I was THRILLED.

Then, I got to go drink with Billy, BenLau, and Nate Emmons at Satellite afterwards. God, I fucking love those boys. Of course, I was still so giddy that everything took on a vaguely unreal quality. (And no, that was not because of the wine, thank you very much.)

So, now it’s Commercial Time!
Everyone should come see Mass Murder. As it says in the program, if you like it, tell your friends. If you hate it, tell your enemies. We run June 1st - June 16th, Fri/Sat/Sun @8:00 pm. Tickets are $12 for the general public/$10 for students /$8 group rate. I personally have 3 comps and 3 group rate tix to give away, so if you want one let me know! Reservation line is 324-6328. Come to my show, come to my show! I’m so fond of Jeff (the director) that I want to do everything I can to help his new theatre company kick off in the best way possible.
