Dinner Theatre Dress Rehearsal

I am getting kind of sick of repeating the same lines over and over again. But I still need to work on my act II lines because I keep messing up, especially when Andi and I are supposed to say "He didn't!" together. I keep forgetting and missing it for some reason. Anyways, wearing the costumes while performing is quite different. I feel like everyone got more into character and reacted more appropriately. Some of the props are a bit awkward though, as are the movements because of the costumes. Some things are more restricted now. For example, when I needed to crawl underneath the table, my dress got caught in the cracks between the platforms. It was also way harder to walk up the stairs because my dress is too long for me and I haven't brought in the proper heels yet. I really like my dress because it's green though, that's my favorite color ever. And everyone else is wearing black-ish colors so I feel a lot more special. I think they're finding a new dress for Andi and a new shirt for Aldo though, because Ms. Karr made a comment about how dark everything is. I just hope they don't change mine. I couldn't get the shot glasses poured in time during the scene change between scene one and scene two from act II. I don't know how I'm supposed to because it's really dark and I can barely walk down the stairs, let alone pour liquid into those tiny shot glasses. I also feel weird because we don't have an ice bag yet. What do those even look like anyways? I can only imagine a bag filled with ice, but that would look weird if Andi gave me an empty plastic bag. Being director is so hard, thank God I'm only acting, I wouldn't be able to handle all the responsibility. I'm actually pretty excited now.
