Whew!
The short run of The Good, the Bad, and the Monkey has come to a close. I am very grateful that it was a success! I’ve said (typed) it before, and I’ll say (type) it again…. A solo show can’t be done alone. It truly takes so many people supporting the performer to make it a success….. And I’m not just talking about the director, stage manager, house manager, etc…. In addition to these fantastic folks, a solo show could still not be done without an audience. I am so very grateful to all of the friends, colleagues, students, and also the folks I don’t know that came out to see this show. I’d like to also mention how thankful I am to all of the people who urged their friends and colleagues to see it.
I’m split right now between thoughts of touring Monkey again next year and writing a new solo show. Well, actually, it’s a three-way split. I also just want to go to sleep. The monkeys, it seems, have already made up their minds with what they’ll be doing in the near future…..
…perhaps I’ll join them.
