Shows # 79 - 82

It should only have been 79 through 81, but I'm getting ahead of myself.
Let's start with yesterday (shows # 79 & 80).
They were just fine - we had some small slip-ups (when don't we?), Ethan came on without his braids (which basically just meant he looked like a boy, instead of like a girl. He's supposed to in that one instance. It was pretty hilarious, in the moment), Michelle twisted her ankle, I dislocated my hip (don't ask), some cues were late... you know, the usual.
Then we drove to Cape Cod, where we thought we had one performance, today.
Only it turns out we were scheduled for two.
The thing is that, under Equity rules, we're supposed to be given 8 days of advance notice per performance. Which technically means we were not obligated to perform for the second time, today.
However, after a pros & cons conversation, some negotiation with Theatreworks and a secret-ballot vote, we opted to perform our show for the second time.
It's just been a little bit stressful, these last 48 hours.
Whatever.
We're on our lunch-break, driving to Providence and doing this show (presumably) only two more times.
Yes, I'm counting.
