oh btw opening night was fine but i forgot my line and i couldn't remember any of the other lines in the scene and my partner didn't remember my line either so we just stood there for like a whole minute and attempted a couple lines before we ended up just skipping a whole page or two
Theater Type
Stage set up where half of the set is like a proscenium theater, but the “backstage” is visible so that the audience is able to see the commotion that occurs behind the scenes of the play and can understand how the director struggled to guide George into his role.
Central Idea
Central idea of the play is that you must make the best out of whatever situation you are thrown in, no matter if you feel like you are the only one struggling, and to allow yourself to be vulnerable if the task is difficult
we plan on showing this in the production by having George progressively become more skilled with how to respond, but then he eventually explains everything to the audience (the situation is quite evident at that point)
Audience Reaction
This show is meant to be light-hearted, fun, and relatable, as most everybody has been in a situation where they were completely clueless as to how to proceed. Everyone who watches this will leave with laughter on their minds!

Kind of a diva
Well...more than just “kind of”..
the kind of woman who would talk to you with her nose turned up towards everyone who tries to stand in her way
George is back stage confused, as he ended up on set for a play that he was not even cast in...
All the actors in the play act very confused and frustrated that “George” doesn’t know his lines.
Later on in the performance, George realizes that there is an execution scene in the play that seems very realistic, and suddenly fears that he may actually get killed
George says his final lines, and the actor who plays the executor chops his head off; the play comes to a close and the audience is very skeptical..
It’s every actor’s NIGHTMARE performance, showed on stage.
Relatively short play, about 30 minutes
Linear structure
History/Inspiration
The play was inspired by dreams actors and performers often have in which they are about to go onstage and cannot remember their lines/rehearsal instructions.
