Closing night

I'll be sad when Proof closes tonight. I've had a fantastic time on this show, and working with the rest of the cast has been great.  Roles like this do not come along very often--at least not in my experience--and I'm bummed that my time with it is coming to an end.  So I'm trying to focus on the positive side of finishing up.

I will not miss:

• the 36-mile round-trip drive to and from the theatre
• putting on make-up every night
• the very tight jeans I wear in Act II, Scene 1
• having to remember all but three pages of the play
• drinking all that ginger ale that's masquerading as champagne and beer

That's a pretty decent list to hang onto.  I'm not going to list the things I will miss.  That would just bum me out too much.

I am looking forward to:

• spending more evenings with NordicBoy
• renting the movie of Proof and seeing how Gwynneth played it differently ;)
• not driving as much
• our upcoming trip to Edinburgh

That's pretty decent list, too.  I think I'll leave it at that.

Thanks to everyone who's come to see the show!  Without you, well, who would we show off for?  ;)
