The stage is up!


We put in a lot of hard work today, and the stage is up and ready for paint!  The curtains have been hung, the lights have gone up and the theatre is starting to look dead sexy.  We're almost ready for the gala opening!!! People are going to love the gala.

We've been at it for almost 11 hours today, faced broken drill bits, lugging huge platforms up a floor, jammed fingers, heads hit by boards (seriously, it was a circus), mulitple runs to Home Depot (our lovely sponsor), long strings of swearing, fingers pricked by needles, bugs while weeding the landscaping.  What a day!

We started to get punchy around 8:30 and decided that pizza would be a good idea Vinny's gal revived us with some beer, and the jokes have started to fly again.  

I can't WAIT to get on the stage tomorrow, to do a full run-through in our sultry little theatre, on our spanky little stage.

The stage DOES look fabulous! I got a sneak peek at the show today, and I can't wait to see it when it really comes together next weekend. Y'all look awesome!

No pizza and no beer makes Javy go cranky!
