So, my school recently put on The Mystery of Edwin Druid, a musical. I, who wanted good seats, community service hours, and a free ticket, volunteered to usher.
It was certainly very interesting.
For one thing, I had to be there an hour before, and spent most of the time standing around awkwardly with the other freshmen usher, not saying anything. Occasionally a senior theater person would come around and tell us to do something, but basically just acted all uppity.
The play was very good- the audience chooses the ending- look it up, and it was a good 2 and 1/2 hours.
Except for the intermission.
Handing out programs was not so bad, but during the intermission, my job was to make sure that no one brought food into the theater.
So there I was, standing at the door, yelling at seniors and elderly people “You can’t bring food into the theater” (since most of the time they had got partially in). What was worse, is that people would openly sneak food into purses and then when called out on it would be all like “oh, that water bottle? How did that get there?”
Probably the worst part was, the last time I came to the school play, I snuck in a cup of cider.
