Subject: [Winedale-l] To the Performers
Dear Performers
On the eve of the reunion performance, my thoughts go to
you, reliving the experience one more time:
- the intense physical, mental and emotional demands
- the heat
- the nagging thought what have I gotten myself into
- the heat
But you know how to drink it all in, don’t you:
- the sunrises and sunsets
- the rehearsals in the barn
- Doc & the Bard
- each other
Tomorrow we are all coming to complete your experience. We
will be the most adoring audience you could imagine, grateful, for the most
part, that it us you, not us, muttering lines at dawn, slipping on tights, and
taking that final pre-performance walk.
You are our heroes for doing this. You have succeeded just
by showing up. You are all so gifted, but please don’t be perfect. We want to
laugh together about a few screw-ups. It will make the reunion even better!
We love you and we just can’t wait.
Thanks in advance to everyone who has made this possible…
