Today is the start of Tech Week for True West. Using some PTO due to late night rehearsals and to get everything ready for Friday's opening! Time to make my offering to Dionysus, the Greek god of theater, wine, festivity, and ritual.

I've been directing a brand new production of TRUE WEST at Lakeside Community Theatre. It's been a great experience with an awesome cast and a kick ass production team.

Of course memories flood my mind of our production in August of 2010, 16 years ago!!

The pressure and stress of directing is all part of the job. "JUST KEEP SWIMMING!"

This close to opening, weekends aren't completely for relaxing. 6 hours at set construction yesterday, today will likely be the same. Don't miss TRUE WEST at #LCTTheColony!!

Rehearsals are going well, but we are still scrambling to find furniture pieces. And, as I tell my kids, work is work. I'm looking forward to the weekend, how about you?

Peace and quiet before the day officially begins; hot coffee and some tv. I've got some painting at the theatre on my schedule, as well as a production meeting for the show that follows mine, #LCTRossumsUniversalRobots.

I'm enjoying my coffee and catching up on the news. Off work for the rest of the week to get some rest and take care of any last-minute tasks for my show, which opens on the 14th!

As temperatures fall, I've got hot coffee, and the heater is set to 72°F. I've got some errands to run in preparation for the LCT Gala & Awards, which I will be hosting tonight. What are your plans?

I attended the final dress rehearsal for our final show of the season last night, THE ASHES OF AQUITAINE. An unofficial sequel to THE LION IN WINTER, the show is beautifully designed and acted!!

We had a spectacular show on Saturday followed by daiquiris and great food at #Blends. And now I've got my coffee, watching some TV, and finally getting around to taking down the Xmas Tree (don't judge me).
