The Day After...


Crazy night on Broadway!
First, Beth continued her absence from the show with a bad case of bronchitis. Corrine is her understudy and Boy, does that woman have pipes! She sang the hell out of the show - very impressive. Both shows, in fact.
Then, in the middle of the first show, David (Harry) blew out his calf muscle and pulled up lame like a race horse coming down the stretch! It's a wonder he finished the show, limping as he was and grimacing to the end. But he's a trouper and he follows the old but true adage, "The show must go on".
Unfortunately the weather didn't help, as the unusually mild and humid evening outside made for a warm evening in the theater. We were all sweating onstage! Under the lights is hard enough, but with the extra heat - nearly unbearable.
Two more shows tomorrow - busy holiday weekend!
