I've decided to go home tomorrow night after the shows; it's the
right thing to do. Nothing is more important than family at the end
of the day.
One audience member for Inadequate Man today; one girl called
Erin. I thought she was going to cry during it. It was awful. She
stayed for the whole gruelling 48 minutes as I ranted away on stage
but then again...it would be a bit tricky for her to leave, wouldn't
it? I went to give her a hug at the end but she ran off.
Filmed a lovely sacking scene with Laura (She Makes War) for the
film – really happy with that one, it turned out well.
First show without Adam for the Make or Break show. How did we get
away with that? Just bass and vocals...well, I turned it into a game
of 'name that tune' on the bass, and also a singalong for the
audience, alongside the plot itself. We had a big audience today who
were really up for it, it was just glorious, messy fun. I don't think
I've ever worked that hard on stage before, I was really streteched
but loving every second. It's like we've accidently stumbled into a
new formula here – family friendly, musical (kind of) comedy. I
feel excited again.
Rix/Rees/Richards show felt below par – I think having a no-show
last night didn't help things, we just lost momentum. The audience,
small but potentially willing, never got into it and that was partly
my fault for the underwhelming intro to the show which is SO
important. We'll be better tomorrow night.
