What would they say?
Hello dears.
So, opening is creeping up on us, or perhaps running at us like a hungry puma (animal reference included for Marnie's enjoyment)! I'm curious about this:
If the audience left thinking or saying one thing about the show, what would it be?
For those who have been involved with the creation but not the current production, please respond as well!

Laura, you sly and nimble jungle tortoise, you.
As for adults, I KNOW they will crack a joke like, "So THAT'S what you teens really talk about?" (In my family at least.)
People our age might react the same way they would to an episode of Laguna or the OC.
Let me explain, because that definitely sounded like an insult to Janis' work.
I think that when people our age see something, they analyze it solely by what was happy in the end. I think they'll say something like, "I loooved how Gretchen and Justin wound up together! That is so sweet!" Because, as Marissa and Ryan have shown us, who DOESN'T like some loose ends to be tied up at the finale?

I think what the audience really should walk away with is a better understanding. Not just of the awesomeness that is us, but the sheer brilliance of the illuminescence and perogony that we share through our work.
It's something that you don't see very much these days. Some say that in such a feradonic world we need things like this play to inspire us as a society to be more open with our feelings of eminopic inconstability.
I really think that Janis put these things together perfectly and I think that is what the audience will walk away with...
What i walk away with (and hopefully the audience too) is how honest the play is. I think people can really connect with it. I've been involved in the rainplay since winter of last year and watched it every night for what 3, 4, or 5 nights now, and i know when all the funny parts are coming and all the touching parts and i still laugh at you--like really laugh not just, haha, laugh, every time. And there are a few moments in the play that are so powerful you make me want to cry. i know im a little over emotional at times so maybe that means nothing to you, but it really does mean a lot to me. Some plays are so annoying because you sit through the whole thing, not believing anything, and then you walk out and all the stupid people are like "what good stage presence..." and im like, "you dumb butt, it's not about stage presence, don't try to sound smart when we all know you're an idiot." and then i look around and everybody around is like, yeah, yeah i totally agree and I roll my eyes at them. and i think maybe im too critical. But this play, is so beautiful, and you do such a great job with it. I could watch it a g'zillion times and never get bored. I hope other people walk away with that too. Your honesty is the best part of it.
also, i hope someone looks at the lobby display board. Blogger high five to Elizabeth! wahoo :)
oh, and marnie, my dad will say that too i bet.
Haha, nice to know my Dad's not the only corny one, Dani!
And Abbey, I was hard-core about the OC in its first season...more hXc than you'd like to know. But not since then, and never again.
