Ushering
So today, I finally realized how everything in the theater works. Being in it for orchestra and dance for the past two years meant nothing. There are so many hidden little doors and stuff. We should make a theater map because I really believe that future drama kids will need one. Especially the stagecraft ones. Or maybe they spend so much time there that they're pretty much used to it but I think it's important. I finally found out where the ticket booth is and also where everything is stored. The lights are extremely heavy, just so you know. The orchestra is also pretty cool but extremely scary. It's really dark and there should be a haunted house down there. It would win at life. I had no idea everything in the theater was so connected or needed that many rooms. I always thought it was just the Performing Arts Center, a building on its own because of its magnificence. Apparently it's not, but it does sit a lot more people than I thought it did. There are a lost more seats than there looks like there should be. Ushering is pretty exciting though since I get to actually see the people that go to performances and half of them look so depressed to be there, it's funny. The best are the really supportive friends and family who scream and yell like crazy when their person shows up on stage. Everybody needs one of those. Too bad there aren't that many. And there was this one lady that was like,"If I can't bring my Starbucks in, why do I need to go inside?" Way to support your kid, lady. Anyways, I finally know where everything is in the theatre and that the poinsettias on the side for Christmas are fake. Great discoveries.
