Escondido, CA

So, here we are in sunny California, (yes Jill, in Escondido:)) after a very cold few days in Montana. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! I spent my turkey day mostly in airports, but it was actually a pretty good day. We definately bond as a cast on these special days and yesterday was like no other!!

The theatre in Butte, MT, where we were on Tuesday, was probably the most difficult venue we will work in, I say that now, eeesh! Then the next day in Billings we had more room and were a bit more comfortable. Just to paint the picture, last year we were a 5 semi-truck tour. We fit into almost every venue except for a couple, where fly space was limited so a couple of drops were cut, you get the idea. Anyway, someone's job was to cut our show by 2 trucks to make our tour this year feasable. Well, they should really go back to the drawing board. We seem to be cutting things in every venue. We have had our full show a small percentage of the time this year. The cast moral gets low when we are always hearing of cuts to the set and things. In Butte, we only had a couch in our townhouse (keep it gay) scene, they had to cut the front door and the stairs, it just looks so weird. The audiences, however, don't know what they are missing and love the show each and every performance!! however, the moral of our show from last year has definately waned.

I am still in the show which is great, but our Roger Debris' grandmother passed away yesterday and he flew home to Florida for a few days. Which means yours truly is on all weekend for the man in the dress. I will try to get a video or at least some pictures to then post for ya'll. I can't seem to not be in the show, crazy!! Hope everyone had a great holiday and I look forward to seeing you all in a few weeks!!
