THE SHOW MUST GO ON!

My girlfriends and I went on a overnighter this weekend. We went to the "Pickleville Playhouse" show "Annie Get Your Gun". It was a great show but close to the end, the power went off (for the second time, the 1st was quickly corrected), Evidently it had happened before because after a brief moment the owner came on stage and announced that there had been a racoon crawl up the power pole and the rest of the show would be without microphones and some of the lighting. To bad for the racoon, but the show must go on!. The preformance was very good, I couldn't believe that the lead was played by a girl who had just graduated from HS. It was quite evident that she was the daughter of the owners and had grown up on stage, she did a wonderful job as did the rest of the cast. We had a great but short getaway, only 24 hours, with short of 5 hours of sleep!
