We had three performances in two days after three full performance dress rehearsal days prior. This past week has me exhausted!
For the dress rehearsal days, I had to wear my Birkenstock's with a black sock over them due to my broken toe.
I put on my first shoe for the Friday night performance. It was feeling ok for the first part of Act 1 but by the end of the play, I could hardly walk.
Saturday was a super hard day being at the school for the entire day with no air-conditioning. By the time of the second performance on Saturday, I was completely exhausted! It was like being in a sauna for days nearly 6 hours or more a day. It wasn't my best performance. I was front and middle of the stage and messed up my dance for a few counts.
Friends said they didn't notice so I hope that is true but I am sure if I was in air-conditioning for the few days, I could have had more energy but I think months of dancing in the humid heat for hours and hours along with a knee injury and the broken toe / foot stomp has taken its toll on me.
It has been fun having three of my BUNKO friends in the play with me and also Princess Five doing a fabulous job as well!
I wish I could have enjoyed this more but I have been struggling enjoying myself very much due to the heat and there is literally no where to sit other than a few chairs in a very loud noisy room with lots of little children that is super hot. I found a little corner where we set up a few racks to change so we didn't have to be in the locker room which is super hot and smelly even worse than the halls.
I'm sure you were awesome! Enjoyed the pictures. Maria
