Mumming

 Going mumming tonight if all goes well.

We did a few performances in Wimborne last Saturday as part of their 'Save the Children' day. That was different as I had to play two parts - I was both the doctor and father Christmas (as one actor couldn't make it).  Alex V (our mascot jig doll) was the doctor and I voiced him as I'm the only person who has the entire play memoried.

I was fine, except that I kept forgetting lines when I had to speak to myself...

I had it right after a couple of performances, but it really is disconcerting when you're doing both sides of a conversation.

Tonight, we should have a full cast, so I only need to be the doctor - though I'm also the prompter as our Father Christmas is new to the part (Poor man only joined Anonymous three weeks ago!) and is rather nervous.

This is amazing - you are soooooo good!
Yes, I hope the performance went well - no, I am sure it did!
