Let’s talk about tech week! It was the most exhausting thing I have ever been through. I have never been so tired! Tech week is the part of the theater process where we practice with the microphones, sets, costumes, and props. We had to be in the theater practicing every evening for 4 days straight. We were out from 5-10pm! We did 8 shows that weekend! It was the first time our company has ever done 8 shows in one weekend! It was exhausting, but so much fun!
I had the best Bittle, Sydney, not my sister Sydnee but a new bff. She framed a picture of me and her and gave it to me. A Bittle is what they call it when they pair up a “Big” kid and a “Little” kid. It sort of gives you a built in theater buddy. My Little was the sweetest. The funny thing about her is that she has a sister named Sadie and another sister named Sami. Isn’t that funny?
Mary Poppins was so much fun, and I’m looking forward to doing more shows in the future. The company is doing Matilda in the spring. I’ll be trying out with Sydnee and William too!
