DINNER 90: Friday, March 31, 2006

Finally! Tonight was the opening night of DINNER WITH FRIENDS, the show I directed for Falcon Theater. After a quick dinner of a Turkey, Cheddar, and Sliced Egg sandwich & some chips from nearby Dixie Chili, I headed to the theater and found lots of last-minute activities as we prepared for our opening night.

We had a good house — maybe the largest number of audience members for an opening night in Falcon’s recent history (we’re checking on that) — and they were very enthusiastic about the show.

Everything went very well. The cast and crew did a great job. I am very proud of them. I wasn’t nervous until about 8:15, when I had just a few minutes of nervousness.

After the show, cast & crew joined in a toast to our opening. Most everyone hung out for a while, but I left early; exhausted.
