I'm having a hell of a week, and it's only Monday.
I can't believe how many amazing things happened on the weekend, and how quickly so many things could come together.
Opening of an amazing show, including a nearly faultless preview performance... even with immense amounts of tech and no full dress rehearsal, for a full audience of critics, theatre big-wigs, and press, who graced us with a full standing ovation. Amazing reviews in the media, and by the end of the weekend, the entire original run and all but 2 shows of the extension were completely sold out. Nothing can make a stage manager so proud :)
This preview was an audition for myself as well... and landed me a huge opportunity. I can't believe just 4 days ago I was a proud volunteer stage manager, and now I have a contract for professional (PAID) work! God. Such a good weekend.
All of this in addition to the friends I've made and rediscovered in this process, and the discoveries I've made about myself. I don't even dread my research job as much anymore! It's a miracle :)
This is the first journal style blog I've written in awhile, and I'm happy it's not a sad one. I'm not usually inspired to put anything but heartache into words on here, but when you feel like your life is coming together, and stars are finally aligning... how can you resist?
Thank you Monday. Today I even love you.
