Another Opening, Another Show!

The shows this weekend went SO WELL!!! YAAAAYYY!! We couldn't be happier; all four shows sold out, we did our very best each time in our roles, we bonded heaps more with the amazing cast, and our wonderful friends and family came and supported us! Perfect!

Mum and Q came to our first show on Saturday and gave us each a beautiful bouquet of flowers (which are now on our table in a drink bottle and a travel mug, the best we could come up with far vases haha).

Before we knew it, we were shouting out "Great green gobs of greasy grimey gopher guts, and I forgot my spoooon!" And the first show was done! We'd officially made our professional, Hollywood debut!!! We had about half an hour off before the next show, so the gang all ran to subway for lunch and we were back at it! The second audience was even more responsive than the first! It also included JT who came and watched the show, so sweet! We finished the day feeling proud, content, and excited for Sunday! 

We went home, exhausted, and flopped on the couch to FINISH True Blood. Like, the whole show. 6 seasons. Hahaha we couldn't believe we'd watched so much but we're already looking forward to the 7th and final season! 

Sunday, yesterday, we woke up extra early to allow for daylight savings time AND the LA Marathon (which was between our apartment and the theatre). We have ourselves an hour extra to get to the show - and it's a good thing we did!!! We spent 45 minutes trying to battle our way around the marathon, getting a liiiittle nervous, until we finally made it onto Santa Monica Blvd with a straight shot to the theatre! We had our fingers crossed for a parking spot and we got lucky - we actually parked in the same spot as the day before, in front of the same car. We made it EXACTLY on time, down to the minute!! So crazy. We ran inside, warmed up, and we were good to go! The first show of the day went really well on the actors' side of things (we thought) but even though it was a full house, the audience was dead! You could've heard a pin drop! The second and final audience made up for it though, they were roaring with laughter!!! It was SUCH a great last show (well, last for now! We're performing at another venue in June!!!) and we all had an absolute blast!

We went home for a bit after the show then headed to our friend Sullivan's apartment for a little cast party! It was great fun and her place is beautiful! We spent a while in the hottub and then went to the home theatre they have in their building and watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall. We also ate SO MUCH amazing snack food, chatted non-stop, and laughed a ton. It was a wonderful way to celebrate the incredibly successful weekend of shows!
