Arts in the Park - our debut!

Our performance venue
   We're coming up on our first performance as an ensemble. Wow. Scary stuff. I am excited to perform though! I feel like Friday's rehearsal tied up some of the loose ends, and we're in a (fairly) good place. It's been a while since I've been onstage. I spend most of my time now in all black either in the booth or FOH. I'm looking forward to being back out in front.
   I'm only worried about the stage itself and transitions. Those were left to the last minute, but I think we'll be okay. I hope the stage is a whole lot bigger than I'm imagining. I don't want to be cramped with acrobatics in "Magic To Do" and the dance break in "Transylvania Mania." That could be disastrous. I'm also hoping that nobody gets hurt on the concrete stage. It could be a recipe for disaster, but I'm praying it isn't.
   I know that most of the theater faculty will be there, and I'm nervous. What if we do a terrible job? We'll never be taken seriously. I just don't want my credibility (what little I have) to go down the drain. (I highly doubt that we'll suck, but still.)
   At the beginning of the year, I didn't know most of the people in this class very well. During this rehearsal process, we've become a close-knit ensemble. We have the potential to do some amazing things this year!
