Openings and another press mention!
We feel oh so special. Press preview night on Wednesday, and opening night last night, were well attended by great audiences who laughed their socks off (and, in the case of last night, almost had me losing it on stage because it was so loud). It’s a great feeling when others you respect and admire in the creative arts enjoy your show, and go out of their way to tell you – we actor types tend to be super insecure and really need that validation from our peers.
Tonight and tomorrow are double show nights (8pm and 10.20pm), which will be a challenge! It’s a pretty tiring show for me, both emotionally and on my voice as I yell a fair amount and I get croaky by the end. I’m relying on hot tea to see me through the second show!
Hope you can make it out – and if you needed another reason, see this listing in the New York Times, where we get a mention for being a non-traditional (and slightly sacriligious) holiday show. The article itself is a fun read, and mentions a show that some good friends have produced called ‘A Very Sandwich Christmas’, which, knowing the fabulous people that make up Banana, Bag & Bodice, is bizarre, hilarious and brilliant. Go see that show too.
Happy Holidays everyone!

Look like great shows and I wish I could see them/you, missus. Good luck with your actoring. Oh and HAPPY HANUKKA-KA-KA-KAH!! :)
Thanks Sefi! Same to you!
