Our last day of performances. Having not got to bed until well after 3am due to a late night beer (well, tea in my case!) at Guitarists house, a lie in was called for so I was barely awake and dressed before it was time to head for The Ostrich Inn to meet my Cousin for lunch before she and her family came to see the show.
This matinee performance was sold out approx. one month ago and was always going to be a noisy one due to the two block bookings of Beavers, Cubs and Brownies that were there.
To be fair, although the audience carried us, it wasn't our best performance of the run. I think everyone was holding back slightly to give their all for the final performance in the evening. There were a few voices (mine included which were starting to 'crack' and would probably only just hold out for the last show.
That said, "Bilgewater" put in a sterling performance as Sultan, covering for 'Sultan', who couldn't make the matinee performance due to work. Bilgewater learnt the part, lines and blocking in less than a week and did himself proud.
Lyric of the Blog: " We're leaving together But still it's farewell. And maybe we'll come back to earth, who can tell I guess there is no one to blame, We're leaving ground (leaving ground). Will things ever be the same again. It's the final countdown..." Europe
