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!"

I'll be focusing most of my day on the 25 Anniversary Season Reveal Showcase. I've got to get the theatre space ready, finalize the host script, and purchase raffle basket items.

Busy, busy, busy. I'm playing catch up at work, #LCTCryHavoc opens this week, and I desperately need to mow the jungle in my front yard.

I have to make up some time for work, but after that, there's work to be done at the theatre in preparation for our next production, #LCTCryHavoc. I'm not sure what the evening will bring, but we will see.

The day has arrived, my friends. The final performance of #LCTRUR, followed by what I can only assume, will be an intense strike. It's time to say farewell to Domin, he was a fun character to play.

Well, performance #3 is in the books. The audience was so responsive and really seemed to enjoy the show, and less than 12 hours we get to do it all again. Nothing planned for today, maybe some laundry and line review.
