If you were at the last show, many of you may not have noticed, but I had a major costume situation. I could not get out of my costume no matter what I did! Eventually, I freed myself, but I felt robbed of being able to showcase the dramatic moment of reveal. I spent the next few days completely disappointed....all that planning....all the trial and error.....was I back to square one? .....I felt defeated by this costume. Then my assistant who helped dress me prior to taking the stage let me know that she had forgotten to fasten THE key piece of the costume. I felt such relief, and anger (at myself) simultaneously that it's taken me a couple weeks to sort through.
What I've learned:
I really am capable of whatever I set my mind and body to
It's wonderful to have help and support
I MUST be the final checkpoint for all things prior to stage time
Never give up, simply continue to perfect
The performance was wonderful and you didn't miss a beat. You really can do anything you want and have a great group or friends & fans to support you.
