On Teamwork

In theatre, the director is not allowed backstage once the show opens. I was glad of this last night, because I didn’t want the cast to worry about my blotches.

What I didn’t know was that 45 minutes before curtain up, the lead had not arrived. When the stage manager phoned him, he claimed not to have known there was a performance. The cast decided not to tell me, because they didn’t want me to worry!

Good grief. I wasn’t the one due to perform in front of 150 people. But I love it that they cared. What a team!

Laughing audience + good crits = Happy Muffin.

Only four shows left, then life back to normal.

Relatively speaking, of course.

Just as well that you didn't know! Nice of them to be so protective.

ha!

Ja - they sure were protective of someone. But i don't think it was our soft-spoken Muffin.

They know me too well. It's a self-preservation thing. Apparently when he eventually arrived, he feared castration at the hand of a Muffin.

I must say that the adrenalin made them all give superb performances!

Nothing like adrenalin to galvanise everyone into action! Aah, it seems that the Muffin is a hard taskmaster?!

Despite the one weak link they are a magnificent team. It's up to them to ruk him reg. Though with this guy, they are likely to strain a foofy-valve in the process.

Anatomical decor receding. Must have been hives (Flutts says so too).

Or the after-effect of seeing Dex's hand.

Yeah Muffin
