I hate it when a show is over. Strike is good because while you're doing
it, the show is still there, then you leave for the cast party, look around
one last time, and realize that the stage isn't there anymore. The sets
are gone, all the lights are gone, back to the set shop. The show's over.
Back to real life. Why can't life be one long musical forever? Well, maybe
not forever, but that feeling of unity, of doing something to make people
feel emotion, happiness or sadness... I miss it already.
Being in another show immediately after helps, a little. But, I wish I could
stay with the cast of "The Fantasticks" forever!
