I'm officially a playwright. I guess I was officially a playwright when I won the competition, but last night I actually felt it when I watched my play, "A Little Bit," on stage. It was a nerve-wracking experience up until last night, but wonderful none-the-less.
Yesterday, I spent my day doubting myself and my play: Would people laugh? Would they enjoy it? I hope they don't walk away from it saying it was a waste of money.
I am my own worst critic. My stomach was in knots...literal knots. I was so nervous that I barely had an appetite. And I always have an appetite.
Anyway, to make a long story short, my play did a fine job. My three actors really played well off of each other and the audience laughed appropriately. I was very touched to have about 25 close friends and family come to the performance just to see my play. That was my favorite part of the whole night.
Congrats that's great! What a huge accomplishment! I bet it felt good :)
ReplyDeleteYay. Wish I was there.
ReplyDeleteI am sooooo sorry that I couldn't be there - I blame Mom. She told me not to come because of the snow!
ReplyDeleteYay! I wish I could see it, or at least read it. That is so cool. I'm super happy that your play went well! :D
ReplyDeleteCongrats! You're living the dream I was too much of a coward to pursue! You deserve every ounce of this and then some!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! That's very exciting and wonderful that friends and family shared in the experience with you.
