On Being Nervous
Can you remember the last time you really wanted to impress your parents?
I saw it in a 30-year old last night.
One of the actors was beside himself because his parents were coming to see the show. First time they’ve seen him on stage.
He comes from a non-theatrical family who find all this thespian stuff a bit strange. Despite his nerves, his performance was wonderful. Even more wonderful were the smiles on his parents’ faces afterwards. And the way they said, “That’s our son!” to everyone in earshot.
I’m so glad to have been a part of it.

Congrats. And I'm sure your mom is proud of you too.

I wonder what it is sometimes - always wanting your parents approval or trying to do something that will make them proud of you....

That's adorable. Don't see that kind of openness too often anymore.

It gave me a warm fuzzy.
No Dex, I didn't make a wee in my pants.
