post-show depression

when you finish a play or a musical and you feel like absolute shit afterwards. you have time to realize that your entire schedule was rehearsal, rehearsal, and more rehearsal. and you also realize that you have no life outside of theatre. im going through it right now, and theres been lots of crying, reading the script, reciting lines over the phone with the other leads, things like that. its emotional.

Me- -nods sadly-

Tom: Joe... I feel like I have to talk to someone... I wish I told you earlier but I'm suffering from Post Stranger Things Depression.
Joe: Tom , you shouldn't have to be afraid to talk about it. Any sane person who's watched the show will feel the same way. I'm afraid I'm suffering too. I'm sorry for not telling you before.
Tom: Joe.. you too? I don't believe it. I've finally found someone to talk to!
Joe: Buddy, why don't we take the day off work and and watch Stranger Things, while pumping 80's music and eating Eggo's?
Tom: Sounds tubular dude. Sounds tubular

Post-Show Depression

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.
I miss our show soooo much. I have so much post-show depression.

Abstract Expressionism

- noun
an “artistic” movement reflective of post-WWII America’s industrial dominance. Just as GM was able to slap together shitty cars & dump them on the “free” world, American "artists" figured they could slap any shit they wanted onto a canvas & declare it artistically "relevant". As the philosopher P.T. Barnum observed, a sucker’s born every minute, & so the shit sold.

A major reason these artists sucked was they couldn’t stay inside the lines. They side-stepped this seeming career-killer by ignoring the lines & marketing themselves as rebellious, anarchic, idiosyncratic & nihilistic which explains A LOT about why the “art” looks the way it does… when you set out to paint shit, you end up with art that looks like shit.

Eventually the art world caught on to the scam, forcing the “artistes” to rebrand themselves as trailblazers in other bogus schools like “Post-painterly Abstraction”, “Color Field Painting”, “Lyrical Abstraction”, “Action Painting”, “Minimal Art”, “Post-minimalism”, & eventually some crap labeled "Neo-expressionism", a style so insignificant it barely escaped the late-70s. Given the paucity of talent in the artists who inspired them (e.g., Amedeo Modigliani, Max Jacob) it’s no wonder their works have the aesthetic appeal of a dog’s breakfast. Truth be told, most were frustrated poseurs who couldn't handle composition & perspective, & burned out on cocaine in the 70s to escape their anger at just missing the free-love movement of the 60s.
Chip: Hey, Dale. I didn’t know Hunter S. Thompson did Abstract Expressionism painting… hope you didn’t spend much on that piece of crap you hung in the foyer.

Dale: I’ll have you know that’s a Michael Petroni… one of Neo-expressionism’s finest artistes!

Chip: If that’s the good stuff, save me from the rest of it. And hang that monstrosity somewhere else, like the attic.
