Okay so here’s a big update on my day.
First off we had the first full length, tech run of Guys and Dolls in front of a load of primary schools but this guy, who plays Nathan, didn’t come on during one of the scenes and, since he’s such a large part, everyone just froze when he didn’t make his entrance for what seemed like a million years but was really only a few seconds. So we all had to try and improvise the scene to make it work the way it should do, just without him in it and we managed to pull it off. I was so relieved and proud of how we managed to cover it and smooth through it.
Anyway, after that me and a group went to McDonalds to get food before the first proper opening night performance. It was all nice and lovely and then we went into Wilko’s to get some chocolates for the teachers (I know, Wilko’s chocolate, classy) But me and my friend Miranda came in later and we were looking for the others so, since it was pretty much empty, she called out our friends name ‘Mia’ in a sing-songy way (which made me really laugh because we literally are the most stereotypical indie drama kids ever) before we went to find them. So while we were in the sweet aisle, this random woman with dyed pink hair and a lip ring (missing it’s ball) came up to us with her baby in a pram and her husband/boyfriend/incest-brother. She asked Miranda to repeat what she’d said and we had not seen this crazy bitch before so obviously Miranda had no idea what she was on about. Then, this stupid schizo skank went insane saying “I heard what you said about you little fucking slut, don’t you dare fucking say that shit about me you twat or i’ll kick your fucking teeth in”. I stepped in and was like, she didn’t say anything other than call out our friends name. Worst. Decision. Ever. She turned on me and said “Don’t you fucking defend you skinny cunt, I heard you laughing as well you fucking twat.” And then she stormed off. It was the most bizzare thing to ever happen to us.
