CHICAGO starring John Davidson as Billy Flynn
DAY 4: Two show day #1
Matinee and Evening show both went well. �Gregory� invited me over to �Non-Eq� house again tonight. Of course, I imbibed in an Irish Car Bomb and then watched as he )very beautifully) mooned both Paul and myself. Ah! Actors! Gotta love �em! �Gregory� was very huggy tonight. Every time I walked by, he pulled me into a humongous bear hug. He smells so good! There are days I definitely wish I wasn�t married�and tonight was definitely one of them.
We watched Pam get extremely plastered by doing a keg stand. She didn�t even come close to Lina�s record of 34 seconds, but considering the woman had already gone past her limit before she�d gotten to the house, it was no surprise. We ended up pouring her into the double bed in the other non-eq house, where she subsequently passed out.
After an Irish Car Bomb and three Caecilian kisses, �Gregory�, Adam and Adam�s best friend, Marina weren�t going to let me go home. I knew staying was a very bad idea. Luckily, I had brought chips and a couple of Mountain Dews with me. I sat and ate chips and drank the Dew until well after 4 am before Adam and Marina would let me leave. Even Paul was a bit concerned and asked that I call him when I got home. I got home safely and did call. It was a good thing I didn�t have to be to the theater until after 6pm!
DAY 5: I guess if there�s anything to be said about drinking too much, I now know why it�s called a hangover!
The show went well. There was yet another party after the show. This time, it was at Bobby�s. We basically hung out and played a silly game called Fact or Crap until about 2 am. It was a very relaxed night. It was also very fun to sit a get to know a few of the people who were not on crew this season. It made me rather sad that I didn�t take the time to get to know them earlier.
DAY 6: Two show day #2
Our last shows. Both went extremely well. As has become my habit, I ran around between shows getting autographs. This time, I also got email addresses of those I hung out with over the past week. I stepped into the guys� dressing room to get autographs from the �boys�. As I was walking out, I mentioned that I was really going to miss them all.
�Gregory�s� response was, �Thanks Stacie!�
I stopped and asked, �Who the hell is Stacie!�
You should have seen his face! He was totally embarrassed that he had called me the wrong name!
I said, �Fine, from now on, your name is going to be �Igor!�
He laughed and said that would be fine, he deserved that. He even said that if I wanted to get back at him during the show, I could. But, being the �professional� that I am, I didn�t�at least, not too badly. Instead of not having his spot come on at the end of the show, I just made sure that the spot flashed him in the eyes during the curtain speech�He understood.
Once the show was over, there was an �Afterglow� party down at the City Caf� again. I went and got the email addresses of those I�d missed earlier. I talked with those I hadn�t had much time to hang out with�and I cried. Almost everybody, including �Gregory� (a.k.a. Igor), Paul and Lina were all leaving in the next 24 hours. I left before I got too depressed.
