No I dont want to miss out! I'll post some pics there before i forget....
you have no idea how busy it's been.. we finished one show and the day after (and after 5 hours of sleep) i was back in the theater preparing for auditions of the next show. This semester has been crazy and it was suppose to be my easy one too now that I've stopped taking 18-21 credits a semester. oh well, tis the life of a crazy theater person.

My 17-year-old daughter was asked to participate in the pit orchestra for our community little theatre. They are doing Young Frankenstein and she has been busy every night!

That is awesome! Is she enjoying it?
and welcome to theater life, have fun during tech/ hell week.... but then she luckily wont have to stay too late those nights. But even for Pit theater is a big thing where you put in so many hours for just X number of shows.... but honestly it's worth it. People are always looking for people to pay in pits.

I was in pit for Into The Woods, and the year after I was a techie (spotlight) for Damn Yankees in high school. In college, I was a set builder for Seussical, and a set changer for the Utah Shakespearean Festival (Johnny Guitar, Hamlet, and one other). I'm excited to hear that there are other theater people on this forum!

Yeah i actually stage managed into the woods last year, great show, but just a bitch to call cues for... even more so when someone thought the rotating set was a good idea (it was but sooo many problems)
Theater people seam to just kinda flock together and search each other out no matter where they are.

Tonight was the final show for young Frankenstein. I think Theresa may be relieved it's over. She was pretty tired of doing the same show over and over. I played clarinet in the pit for You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
