Things I will miss in being in my school’s production of Spelling Bee
All of us throwing shade at the actor of Chip when he didn’t know what was going on because one weekend he up and went on a trip to Mexico and didn’t tell anyone in the show until like 2 days before he went
All the girls in the dressing room lip syncing to My Unfortunate Erection when Chip sang it during tech week/performances
The actor of Panch just relishing being a dick to children and in general
The weird personas made for the people in the ensemble (we played audience spellers because the director doesn’t trust actual audience people after the first time she did the show)
Mitch Mahoney memes (e.g. Mitch’s bitches, Mitch’s Mahoes, etc.)
This one movement everyone does on the word “tornadoes” in Woe Is Me and everyone now just doing it whenever we hear the word
The fact that Leaf was such a favorite, like during the student matinee in the school day, he basically got standing ovations whenever he spelled a word correctly, and when he got out, everyone booed really hard and I heard people crying djdjdjdjjdjdhd
Dancing in the wings to Magic Foot because I get out before that song, but it’s still so fun to dance to
Jesus
Like our Jesus was just going around on a hoverboard and spraying holy water at people, which is also incredibly funny when he goes into the audience and does it (he said at some point that he heard someone in the audience go “Daddy Jesus suck me” and he gave them two sprays of holy water for saying that)
Talking to the guys who played Carl Dad and Dan Dad, like they’re incredibly awesome people and I think we’re friends now. Also the fact that during Woe Is Me (Reprise), they’re sitting in the audience and when Logainne spells “vug” incorrectly, Carl Dad just starts loudly sobbing and runs out of the theater
Also they both believe that they split up after the events of the musical, so I asked them separately at different times who gets custody of Logainne. Both of them agree it’s Dan Dad, though Carl Dad said he’s supposed to get her on weekends, but hasn’t seen his daughter in two weeks and is very mad at Dan Dad because the Father-Daughter dance happened on a Saturday and he still didn’t see Logainne
Performing the show was just. So much fun. Especially Pandemonium. I’m so surprised that I didn’t get any panic or anxiety attacks before or during the performances
There’s just this feeling, especially during bows, when everyone cheers and claps, and it’s like... a good feeling. I’m gonna miss that feeling
