Dress rehearsal

Dress rehearsal tonight and, almost disappointingly, it wasn't spectacularly good or a total disaster. Was a bit slow, a bit nervy at times, I need to remember to breathe during long monologues, and I need to remember to wash my shirts as my sweatiness may be causing offence to those around me. But with the wonderfully designed set on stage for the first time, the flashy lights, the 80's tuneage...blimey, it's like a real show. I need to calm down, I've been really nailing it over the last two rehearsals but the dress rehearsal tonight saw me revert back to my nervous, unsure state. The rest of the cast are outstanding. It's close - but it could still go either way.
