You get away with a lot if A) You are the Student Director or B) You are filling in for someone who got sick on short notice. I was doing both yesterday afternoon. This the story of the soda run.
Moe's got a fancy new coke machine next door, and I had just finished my soda. I was parched, and we still had time till we went on. I knew I wasn't supposed to drink anything but water in my costume, but I figured I had done this enough that I wouldn't spill anything. So, I was out of soda, had nothing to drink, and was desperate. I got up from my seat on the stairs, and walked to the back entrance to the theater (which was in the same room). I told everyone "I will be right back. Cover for me." I was in full hair, makeup, costume, the whole shebang. I was just about to leave when my sister said "Lex, wait. Get Georgia Blue to do it." I didn't even think of it. She was in the green room hanging out with us, and she wasn't even acting. So, I called Ms. Georgia Blue over to ask her to get me a Vanilla Coke. "I have to ask my Mama, but I will do it if she lets me." Off she goes with my cup. I wait for a few moments. Time passes. Mrs. G yells at us (again. Really, who is surprised?) and walks off. Next thing I know, Georgia Blue is back with my cup, which is now full of soda and ice. I couldn't believe it. I was completely elated. I thank her, and walk back to my staircase seat next to Briana.
Just to make this cheesy, I am in your debt Georgia Blue. Either way, I got some soda and didn't really have to do anything. Being the Student Director Extraordinaire has more perks than you think.
you get away with alot if you're the student director AND the directors daughter. i would have never gotten away with that
