Monday.
4:44pm.
One minute to show time.
Misha is in costume, ready to sneak across the stage for her entrance.
I am applying my final layer of lipstick.
And then: the power goes COMPLETELY out.
It wasn't quite a city-wide black out, but it was enough to shut down our show as well as the shows at a few of the other Fringe venues. We haven't heard horror stories of anyone being on stage when it happened, but I'm sure they will trickle out over the next few days. We waited it out for a few minutes, but when it became apparent that the lights weren't going to come back on right away, we packed up our set by flashlight (it was REALLY dark in there) and called it a day.
Our apologies to our audience members that didn't get to see the show! We hope you can make it on another day, but if not, we would be happy to perform G&L in your living room. By candlelight, if necessary.
Three shows to go!
