The First Show, The First Review

We held our breath after the lights came up and the show was over. We quietly packed up our stuff and put it away in the stage shop space.
"Well. We hope they didn't totally hate it."

Portland audiences were loud and filled with laughter. The stage was small and intimate. We could feel their energy. Our first audience at the Winnipeg fringe was far from us. The venue is large, the stage is large, and they were quiet. We had no idea what they thought.

We know the subject matter is hard for some to swallow but still... we were nervous as we talked about the review not being important: it's the show that's important. And this is true, it is the show that is impotant, and we know this, and we love this, but we are also humans, and we put our love, and our life, and our personal stories up there on the stage for people to view, and we all in our own personal way, were preparing for a possible blow. We are strong, and we have each other, and we have you at home Portland so we hold hands, and hold each other up, and wait, and say, we can take it, bring it on! And...

They liked us. They really liked us in fact they four star liked us. We are jumping with joy! Our first review said we are "the sexiest show at the fringe," can there be anything better?

Once again, thank you Portland, thank you home for supporting us. This baby done good, and she's only gonna get better and better with age.
