After a few days at home, we were back on the road heading to New Jersey. We performed on Friday night at the beautiful Mayo Performing Arts Center (formerly the Community Theatre of Morristown). Tickets had been selling well before we arrived and , by showtime, we had a full house of excited patrons. But first, we had to load it all in!
Once the equipment made it from the dock to the elevator and onto the stage, we were ready to start the set up. There’s definitely an order to my day – scenery first, the moving lights, lighting focus, tweak the show cues, sound checks, and a quick tech rehearsal. Everyone else also has their responsibilities during the day and, when it all comes together, we have a show…it just takes about 7 hours to make it all happen.
What a great crowd!! We had a full house and the perfect audience for an illusion show – great volunteers, audible responses, and a great mix of ages. Once again, Morristown proved that they are a fantastic audience!
