Macbeth Closes

And tonight 'Macbeth' had its closing performance.  I am equal parts relieved and saddened.  Relieved, because my schedule has been beyond hectic, and it will be nice to regain a small measure of sanity (although "Proof" will now go in full force), saddened because I will miss my beloved Lady Macbeth, and the wonderful group of girls with whom we had so much fun.  Yet, this is exactly what an actor's life is about — changes.  After each show closes, there is a short (sometimes longer) mourning period, and then we let go, and move on to other projects.  I do hope there will be something special beyond the horizon.
