Pit fall...

Oh my! Tonight's show was going well and the audience was having a great time! Before the show we had a short rehearsal going over the Act 1 Finale and the Sextet that is nearly at the top of Act 2. So far, the Finale went smoothly without so much as a hitch and we were on to the Sextet. So far so good. Other than one character with no shoes that usually had shoes, we were good! So we get to the point of the scene where I get pushed downstage in my wheelchair to be caught before anything happens...

Not so much tonight. I was inches away from thrusting my head into the conductor's keyboard. I caught myself with my foot and unbeknownst to me, most of the cast onstage had lunged toward me until I was also caught! Scary and it ended up being pretty funny! At least I didn't end up on You Tube with all the crazy "falling off stage" videos!!!
