rehearsals started today on the amateur show

and it seems

at this point

that it actually might be worse than feared

 

is never particularly happy with any performance has ever been in

( is just too self conscious to be a credible performer - 's less than humble opinion)

the horror is

the lines are just not funny

they are way too polite

 

"We don't want to upset or offend anybody" they told

do you know what you call a comedy that offends nobody in any way?

 

you don't

because it is the proverbial tree falling in the forest with nobody to hear it

 

 

bad drama can be so bad that it is funny

(try to watch the movie Mommy Dearest and not break out into laughter)

but bad comedy doesn't become drama

it just lays there

and the dog goes into hiding because the stench is so bad that

even tho the dog knows it did not do THAT

it has genuine fear it will be blamed for it

 

saturday night can not come soon enough
