Today was day three of the play and we have two more to go. Our actor who is having back problems was not there again today and the author again read the part and I believe will on Sunday too. He can’t be there tomorrow, so the original cast member is going to make it in for that one show, at least that is the plan.
This audience was about the same size as yesterday but not as enthusiastic. We got some laughs, but not where we thought we would and there was not applause at each scene change like there was yesterday. Our leads messed up some lines they did better on last performance but the author felt that the last scene which includes me was the best we have done so far and got the best reaction from the audience.
My aunt was able to come today and said she enjoyed it. There were at least two people from the poetry group there but I only got to talk to one briefly who said he enjoyed it too. We had a few people from the chorus too, including the assistant to the director. She came to lunch with my aunt and I after I changed clothes and we had a nice chat.
