Thanks babes! Last performance was yesterday afternoon and It was definitely my best. I've had people every day approach me after the performances and say wonderful things ... being an introvert I find this disconcerting, however there's no doubt it's nice being appreciated!
Sydney that's SO cool! If you have video or audio of the production, I'd be so glad to see it!
I also made a glass vagina as a gift for the production, I'll post photos to this thread when I get a chance.
Here's my summary of the week.
Dress rehearsal and production days, young and very pretty women doing wardrobe and makeup (in between their problem sets, writing papers etc). Boobs, asses on display. How can one not be attracted? and so I work to not cross any lines, it's just bodies and as I'm staff and they're students I am so wary of the need to be respectful.
Such a hectic pace .. it takes a lot out of me and this month was already every bit as challenging for me with work as it is for our students ... my hours aren't as long as theirs but I'm also 40 years older and research funds and progress depend on continuing to stay on top of stuff.
It's emotionally wrenching, I went into every day to present something a little different (I need to keep it new and do best with stuff that's not heavily rehearsed, that doesn't mean not being mentally prepared).
So many of my friends came to see and support, I didn't want to let them down.
Most of all I realize I was there for our cast and crew. We're raising consciousness with these performances, however the audiences only see a fraction and I see these women as warriors in quite literally changing the world.
Also glad to be finished. I need to get back to a more emotionally stable place.
Sadie
