Day 299

Ever since my storyteller profile went up, lots of people have been coming up to me to inquire about my upcoming show with Oral Fixation. I’m really excited but it’s also beginning to dawn on me that I’m going to be on a stage with about 200 people staring at me. Yeah, this is going to be an interesting experience.

Openin’ Night
BY SHEL SILVERSTEIN
She had the jitters
She had the flu
She showed up late
She missed her cue
She kicked the director
She screamed at the crew
And tripped on a prop
And fell in some goo
And ripped her costume
A place or two
Then she forgot
A line she knew
And went “Meow”
Instead of “Moo”
She heard ‘em giggle
She heard ‘em boo
The programs sailed
The popcorn flew
As she stomped offstage
With a boo-hoo-hoo
The fringe of the curtain
Got caught in her shoe
The set crashed down
The lights did too
Maybe that’s why she didn’t want to do
An interview.
