Theatre is nutts! We've had shows with less lead time! That's when you pull in everyone you know, and even some you don't, you work 18+hour days, no days off, and you collapse at the end, hating the show, and never wanting to ever see the designer again! Yes, that was a big run on sentence. That's what life in the theatre is like...I don't go there any more! And don't ever think I like musicals, or ever want to listen to one...BLECH!
