The show generally went well last night, but we were all chagrined by some snafus in lighting and other things. Also--a disappointment--the audience was sparser than on Friday. Hmm, why would that be? Possibly, because we had virtually no publicity, aside from a piece (sans picture) in The Tuckerton Beacon, with has a readership of roughly fourteen. Several months ago, Desi and I met with the person who was supposed to do publicity and I gave her detailed information, including contact e-mails and phone numbers for the papers and other outlets we used. Guess she just decided it was too much for her. However, I'm not going to agonize over it.
A number of my friends were there last night, including Ray and Barb, Pat G., Doug and Pat H., Bill and Lois V., and others.
Last performance this afternoon. The northern couple are coming, along with my niece and her husband, Joan and Jim, sister Betty, and Marilyn and Clorinda from my former life.
Then will come the letdown. After months of ever-increasing concentration on a play, to perform three times, then see it end is always a jolt. However, Tonya said we might be able to have the next one on two weekends and that would be terrific. Hope so.
