Another fun cast party!
“My Fair Lady” was a fun show that we produced in a non-traditional manner (see previous post.) The audiences all had a good time (so did the cast) and that’s what counts! NST has a cast-party tradition where fun gifts are handed out (ex. Doolittle got a four leaf clover kit - so he could make his own little bit o’ luck.) Shari always procures these and hands them out along with the story of why they were chosen. It’s a lot of fun. The kids in the chorus went swimming (so did some of the adults - it was pretty hot outside) and there was too much food but somehow we persevered.
A lot of times cast members don’t get much of a chance to chat during rehearsals. That time is generally pretty well scheduled in an effort to remain productive. Parties are great for just hanging around and relaxing and (believe it or not) usually the show isn’t discussed at all.
Sometimes the best part of a production is simply enjoying time with the people you’ve just performed with.
