Ah. “Dead of Winter” completely sold-out last night–actually had to turn away two last minute theatre-goers without reservations, and the audience was with us every step of the way and left with smiles.
When you’re down in the trenches, trying to put this stuff together, it’s easy to lose sight of the rewards, but nights like that remind you what the struggle’s all about…and why working in theatre is so addictive.
Today, I’m just riding it.
