Things that made me lose my shit from last night's load out:

The girl with the fucking heels

The lady who chased after a tour member cause she wanted the bands vodka (no she didn't get it)

The same lady stole food and tried to steal soap from backstage

The dude taking selfies in the backstage dressing rooms then got angry at me when I told him to delete the photos

The two dudes who went into tour catering and tried to steal leftover band beer and candy

The amount of men who for some strange reason kept trying to take road cases from me no matter how many times I told them "nope I got it but there's this other thing you can do" and then just FUCKING STOOD THERE.

FUTURE

Hey everyone!! So I’ll be going to KCACTF Region 4 competition in February for stage management and also to SETC in March! I’m hoping that some of my lovely followers will be going as well - I would love to meet y’all! If you are, feel free to send me a message so that we can talk and get to know each other! (Also I just wanna meet more theatre people outside of my area.) 💕🎭

tech week is either "i've been sitting here for two hours with nothing to do but i can't leave because they might need me" or "there are 25674 things on my to-do list and they're all the number one priority and they all need to get done in the next hour" no in-between

Does not apply to the theatre

Okay i'm going to say this once.

The Saying: "if you can't tie a knot, tie a lot"

DOES NOT APPLY TO THEATER DRAPE DO NOT MAKE A ROW OF TINY KNOTS TO THE TRUSS CAUSE YOU NEVER LEARNED TO TIE YOUR SHOES!

I should not be spending 15 precious minutes of load out trying to untie (before eventually giving up and cutting it off) tie line.

Just a thought

At some point during a load out where everything just starts looking like a potential murder weapon.

You have officially been working to long

Tell your crew chief you need a minute and drink some water.
