Having quite a lot of anxiety about HOP at the moment. Basically, one woman who didn't enjoy the show in Newcastle, messaged me some quite strong words about it. I sent some quite strong words back (in short saying, "what part of 'singalong' show did you not expect? You've turned up to a night that's advertised as a singalong show, what's not to get?" but I may have sworn, because she did, several times in her message to me). See, a majority of people that night loved it, and the Manchester one was a unanimously brilliant night in which I had over a hundred people embraced into what we're doing. Yet I still focus on that one woman who goes to the effort of messaging me.
Or maybe I'm just being negative because, you know, negative stuff in general.
The show is fine. The hotel they're putting me up in, in Belfast, is beyond my status as a performer, but it means we're getting somewhere.
Took Mum shopping and got stressed, and then taught three lessons which were all brilliant.
Got back and did some work on my HG script, it's on draft 5 now and it's a tense, powerful, really quite funny little 55 minutes that is by far the best thing I've ever written. I need to learn it, though, really sharpish and there's SO MANY WORDS.
