Clean Shaven, Brah!

Closing day of Godspell! Due to the gritty nature of the show a lot of the guys had to grow a substantial amount of facial scruff to give it an authentic feel (and also because spirit gum sucks) so all week long we kept hearing, "Arrgh, I can't wait to get this thing off me!" *beard scratch* So today immediately following the show (before we even started striking the set) Graham and Erik disappeared into the men's dressing room and came out looking all shiny and new. Much high fiving ensued. The best part, though, was watching people react upon seeing their faces, some of them for the first time sans beardage. It was like we suddenly had a gang of strangers running around that looked vaguely like the cast members we have all grown to love. The cast party was supposed to take place at the director's house, but that fell through so I offered up my place instead and we had a great time hanging out one last time (For now. The show may get to perform at a festival in January) and bonding as friends. Fare thee well, Godspell. It was wonderful while it lasted. I'm really looking forward to some free time.

No, wait, Thanksgiving is this week. Nerp! Scratch that idea...
