Stella calls it the curse of the second night.
It happens especially when the first night enjoys success, we get complacent, let our guard down and things start going wrong.
I play very cautiously today.
Angie changes the position of the song "Ehipassiko" to before the intermission. It is a great move. Last night's audience was virtually kept in the dark for ages while the kids playing the worms positioned themselves into the prop that signified the "pile of dung" Now we can take as long as we want to prepare for the worm story.
Turns out that tonight's performance is better than last's!
