Amadeus Revived - Second Night

We finished it. I really put my all into it tonight and I'm shattered. The first act got a great response from the audience and the second act was the best I've ever done it. I really went for it today. My big speech was incredible to perform, I really felt connected to the audience. The interval was nice as it was David Kendel's birthday and Lizzie and Rachel had baked him a calorific chocolate cake. I had a slice and felt quite ill (because I hadn't eaten - I'm cooking something now though)which helped for the second act when I'm meant to have stomach pains. It was quite funny for Julie (Greybig) because she got really bad hiccups and couldnt go on for one of the opera scenes. It was nice to see the reactions from the first years as well. There a lovely bunch and their great to talk to. Today I drove into town with Nicki, Emily and Tom. Twas nice to spend time with Nicki and it helped me take my mind off the show. So now I have 2 days off now in which to prepare for my next play: Rape Of The Fair Country
