You auditioned. You got a callback. You made it into the show. You rehearse for months, making amazing memories with your friends, who became your second family. You threw absolutely everything you had into this musical. You fell in love with the music score, and knew everyone’s lines and said them across the wings to your friends. The performance came, and you did amazing. Everyone loves it, you felt as happy as ever. The curtain falls for the last time. You turn around and see your best friends, with tears in your eyes. Your heart sinks. You have an after party, which mainly consists of crying and hugging. You go home and sit on the couch. The next day, you don’t go to any rehearsals. You lie in bed and cry, while texting your theatre friend that you miss them already. You read the script again and again, and you watch the film while performing the show in your living room. You wish you could do it again. This lasts days, weeks or months for some people. It’s hard. Really hard. And only theatre people understand what I mean.

A form of depression caused by uncontrolled feelings, leading to hopelessness and loneliness. Often originates from the end of a much-rehearsed performance. It may be acute, or it may last until the next set of rehearsals start. Usually, it involves walking offstage and into a metaphorical vat of frozen herrings topped with sour relish, which will symbolize your view of life until the depression has passed.
-Why are you covered in metaphorical frozen herrings?
-I have post show depression.
-Well, you can't leave the music field, Elvis. Guess you'll have to wait this thing out.

Best youtube videos to watch when bored. Make the best stories about murder and anything radioactive. Their shows contain numerous subtle errors, but it's all good because it's nonetheless high quality content.

When you’ve finished a musical/ play and feel angry, worthless , sad and annoyed that it’s finished . You become so attached to your character because they resemble your inner self . You hear the songs on the way home and just cry . Post show depression only happens when a show has truly impacted the actor as a person .
