Last night was amazing. We ran so much more smoothly than opening night. We also had made some changes to the show before we opened that were moving and startling last night with Roman and Daja. I'd love to have another run of the show in the very near future. I think we are just getting a momentum going and could really use another weekend run to get the show perfect.
My family was there. It was beautiful. My father, my mother, both my sisters and all my nieces. I didn't get all weepy opening night, but seeing my mom and dad out in the audience teary-eyed I almost lost it; but had made a pact with myself not to run my make-up...lol.
Another wonderful job by the cast. Today we have a Q&A with me and the cast. Looking forward to that. We lost a few audience members last night. Some at intermission, and some after the SCENE. I got to hear recounts of all kinds of reactions from different people. The best was just sitting in the audience and hearing people experience the show; hearing them laugh and cry, cheering for the family. It really moved me. I also see where I need to tweak things for the next run.
I am so grateful for this experience.
