Hairspray: Closing and Strike

Yesterday was our last performance of Hairspray. The show ran for four weekends and we had pretty consistently full crowds who seemed to really enjoy themselves. I had a great time getting to know the cast, crew and directors and I'll definitely miss working with them.

Strike went really well - it was well organized and everyone came together to take care of business. People brought their own power tools if they could and for the most part there was minimal standing around waiting for something to do. It took us two and a half hours to tear down the set, with quite a few flies, two jackknife platforms and a rolling set of stairs. After strike we had a delicious potluck and said our goodbyes.

Being in Hairspray at the Playhouse was a really great experience. I met a lot of new people and we came together to make something we were all proud of.
