"A Christmas Story" was a RESOUNDING SUCCESS
What an experience. I can't believe it's over. 13 shows, sold out, and standing O's every night.

Spent 2 hours striking the set and then ate a big lasagna dinner with cast and crew. We'll have our official party the first Saturday after New Year's.

Did I have fun playing The Old Man? What do you think?

It was a major award!

7. I had great fun with those parts!
The play had real kids, and was completely G-rated, so my cussing was ad-libbed semi-mumbling!

"Summering bishop! Goat dandruff! Frabjib jibjabbling wangdoodling Bumpus hounds!" and so on. :-)

15. I'll join!
But first I must sleep, perchance to dream.... :-)

I am beat! One thing aspiring actors should know is that balancing acting with a day job can be tiring (but fulfilling). :-)

18. Yes, and so is balancing acting and school!
Though there is the advantage that usually you can do some rehearsals during class time.

Enjoy your rest! :)
