There was one actor that was on stage crew like twice and was like 'She always communicated with me!' like im sorry bro were you TECHNICALLY the ONLY PERSON on stage crew for a super set-heavy and tech-heavy show? Did you have to paint multiple set pieces last minute during tech week? I don't think so.
She decided to move to another school and didn't tell us, just like how she never told me whenever the show order changed. It hasn't really sunk in yet, but I am relieved. That woman was the cause of so much of my anxiety and she is finally gone.
Some of the actors are like: "omg she was so nice!!!". Honey, please. "She communicated with me so well!!!" Seriously?
Ah, the duality of man.
Anyways, we're getting a different drama teacher to run our theatre company this year, so that's gonna hopefully be fun.
I have some great news to tell my therapist.
and don't forget:
"Oh, we can figure it out next week." *Doesn't give time to work on it next week*
*Laughs when someone is stressed* "I'm not laughing."
"Why are you all so tired?" *It's literally 8oclock*
*I slightly raise my voice* "Don't yell at me."
*Doesn't tell me the set for a scene* "You should know the set!"
things my director has said and done that makes me hate them so much:
"Oh, we don't need to worry about lights and sound until tech rehearsals, you don't need to write anything down." *a little later* "Why didn't you write anything down?"
"This show will be much less stressful." *adds projections*
*casts new company members as actors instead of letting me ask them about backstage work*
"You have no reason to be stressed out."
