Well, we have to work, and then rehearsals afterwards. But, assuming I’m not deadbeat tired by the end of the day, I suppose I could squeeze something in.

Sorry I missed the actual event, but you wouldn’t happen to be free for post-birthday birthday celebrations would you?

[closedkurtains-blog]

Agreed. I think that, since we’re all working towards one main goal, we’ll be able to put aside our differences and make something really special. Or, maybe that’s just my naivety and love of the theater talking -- who knows at this point.

Congrats, everyone!

If someone got me wasted on one drink, I’m not sure I’d tip them very well. The point is to be social and enjoy your time at the bar, and if you’re already seeing stars at 6PM, then what’s the point?

Ah, see, that would be the goal if I was getting paid for my services. But seeing as we’re volunteers, my goal is to make the people happy, and then get tipped extensively. I know I always tip more when the drinks are good.

Thank you, thank you. I had minimal worries, so it’s good to know my hard work paid off. And, though it’s not the part you intended for, I’m still blown away at your casting of Cinderella! You’ll be wonderful, Queen Tee. Simply wonderful.

Congratulations, Mr. Hummel! Nobody is meant to play Jack more than you and I’m so excited to see you play him. As for Tony’s, I’m definitely there, too.

And drink up I did, Miss Harper. I hate to admit it, but my memory faded around ten o’clock -- I didn’t get too rambunctious, did I?

I have saved my tip from the past few days, so get ready to drink up, Mr Hummel.

That it was! Thank you, Madison. You’re very sweet. And, congratulations to you, too, for earning the part of Little Red. She’s my favorite character in the whole production, so I do hope you’ll bring me the laughs I’ll be waiting for.

I always hate assuming but I’m pretty sure it’s your birthday, right? That said, Happy Birthday Kurt! Hope it’s a good one. Congrats on the part as well. You’ll make a great Jack.

Thank you, Finn. Truly, thank you. I don’t think anyone else was quite as excited as you were, and that always means a lot, knowing your family is there to support you. And I don’t think I’m the only person who deserves a little congratulations -- you got a main part in the musical, too! I have no doubts that you and Dani will be sublime together.

There’s so much good stuff happening in this post, but first and most important: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, little brother! Maybe you don’t do wasted but you do dance, and you get full control of Tony’s jukebox tonight. I’m gonna buy you drinks! I mean, you’ll have to be the one to give the bartender the money but it’s on me.

And congrats on the part! If there’s anyone who can do all four shows as Jack it’s you. I’m gonna have to figure out which night I want to get tickets for.

Happy Birthday Kurt!

So I know that I’ll be seeing you later at the Club, but I’d rather make sure you get this now. Just wanted to let you know that you’re an amazing friend, I worship our coffee dates, and that I’m happy to be your muse. I found this in a small antic store, if it’s not you it’s cool – I just couldn’t help myself.

All of the love and xo’s

-          Dani.

Ps. I’ll do my best to make sure no one has to carry you home tonight! Pinky promise.

In honor of earning my rightful spot as Jack in this summer’s production of Into the Woods -- as well as today being a very special day for yours truly -- consider this a formal invitation of sorts for all people who’re mildly interested, and tolerable enough to enjoy an evening out with the one and only.

You only turn 21 once, and while I’ve never been too big on going out and getting wasted, I plan on enjoying a few legal drinks tonight down at Tony’s, with the help of Miss Dani Harper. Anyone who wants to come along is more than welcome to do so.

[closedkurtains-blog]

I’m not sure if that’s something to be proud of. The goal is to get people to buy more drinks, and not watering down one of the heaviest drinks a bar can serve is only working against you.

Probably not the way that I make it. That splash of soda at the end becomes more of a drizzle, really. 

[closedkurtains-blog]

Well, of course it is. We’re the ones who’re cast in the first place, and we all have musical talents pouring out of our noses, despite the fact that we get into it every now and then over minuscule things like Riff-Offs, and what not. I’m just glad to know that we can put this feud to rest in order to work on bringing something to life together.

The Witch has arrived.

Well thanks, Hummel – I’ll ignore the old decrepit part for now, since either way I’m going to own that stage, but despite that, I think this whole production is gonna slay.

[closedkurtains-blog]

You’re very welcome, Miss Fabray. I give credit to those who deserve it. And thank you in return -- I wasn’t too worried, but I was still relieved to know my own hard work had paid off in the end. Are you excited to start up rehearsals?

Congrats, everyone!

[closedkurtains-blog]

Oddly enough, I think you’ve earned this part fair and square. Your vocal range suits the score the most, and if anyone can pay the vigilante, it’s you. The real joy will be watching you transform from someone who’s gorgeous, to a decrepit old lady with a wart on her nose.

The Witch has arrived.

Say hello to the lead of the Summer production this year – I can’t say I’m surprised, since this role was basically made for me, but I’ll accept any gifts and applause after the performances. Try not to be too disappointed if you didn’t get it – we can’t all be this perfect.

TEXT MESSAGE → HUMMELBERRY

KURT: Congratulations, your Highness.

KURT: I can't say I'm too shocked by the results, but I wanted you to know how pleased I was with your very well deserved part.

The real question is -- does a Long Island Iced Tea really need more alcohol in it?

In a stunning turn of events, a very drunk housewife dropped an extra twenty bucks on a forty dollar tab. Definitely not complaining about that, maybe I should have slipped her an extra vodka shot in her Long Island Ice Tea.

[closedkurtains-blog]

I can’t say I’m too shocked that you’ve managed to settle in nicely among the ranks of the Greensboro Country Club. I know I’d be honored to leave my keys in your very capable hands, Miss Harper. However, I do think a little congratulations is in order for you and your wonderful part in the musical! You’ll be amazing, I have no doubt about it.

Okay,

So parking cars is definitely my kind of thing and I’d just like to kill off those rumors about me being too short to reach the pedals, at least before they go any further. Wouldn’t want the manager of the club to start questioning my killer set of parking-skills. On the plus side, the members tip insanely well.

– One might’ve mentioned me ‘finally’ being able to afford a normal hair color with the generous tip, but I wouldn’t put my money on it. Pun intended. In other news; I’m going to be the nameless wife of a baker, and as I get to play opposite Finn with him as my hubby, I couldn’t be more excited. Hopefully, everyone is satisfied with the parts they got.

[closedkurtains-blog]

Count me among those who’re unsurprised at your victory, Quinn. With all the hard work you put into preparing for the role, I knew it was as good as yours. I’m sure you’ll do wonderful things with the part.

Congrats, everyone!

To those who got the role they sought after, good for you. To those who were cast in an unfortunate role, my apologies, but you better not ruin the show for the rest of us. Personally, I knew Rapunzel would be mine, but it was quite the relief to see my name listed beside hers. I’m sure all of the shows will be fabulous!
