"And That's a Wrap"

The day has finally come, and it's a rather bittersweet one at that. Eighteen performances and one preview later, "To Kill A Mockingbird" has come to a close. The curtain has fallen on a highly praised run, the bows have been taken, and the cast has broken up and gone their seperate ways -- many to new projects already. Nowhere else can you put together a group of people from varying career fields, come together as a family for two months, rehearse and perform an award-winning stage show, and then part ways never to be that family again.

That's life in the theatre. It's always a bittersweet parting. That's just how it is.

Now all that remains of "Mockingbird" are photos and memories. By the end of the week, even the set will be in pieces. But, it's been a great ride, and one to remember. Time to move on to the next project. Time to start the process all over again. Auditions, here I come. :)

Have a blessed day all, and until next time,
Your happily blogging, slightly teary-eyed actor friend,
-Jon
