So, our production of A Midsummer Night's Dream has come to a crescendo and finished well. It was three months of hard work and 3 days of insanity... and so worth it. As I scrub off the tenacious stage makeup and guzzle medicine for my newly raw throat, I may feel some pangs of anticlimax, but I still got a lot out of it. Working with a great bunch of people is rarely a bad thing for me, and I'd forgotten the intensity that is theatre. I've found a new closeness to almost the entire cast that comes from being in each others' faces for so long. I've seen Shakespeare's art vastly more clearly for being so deeply involved in it. I've gotten valuable acting experience, and I have almost the entire play running on infinite loop in my head. Mainly, I had a whole hell of a good time just doing it.
