Same for the props. I'm missing weapons, jewels, incense, palm pilots, wands. Absolutely no one returned their props to the table as they left the stage. ![[Disappointed]](graemlins/disappointed.gif)

Great. I bet management is going to expect me to iron everything. This is the thanks I get for keeping everyone dressed. They get their costumes all covered with yuck , sheep plop not being the worst of it, and expect me to have them looking lovely the next night. And another thing, if Herod's dying of an STD, I ain't touching anything he barfed blood onto.

Well there it is. Our little play is ended with some bloodshed, a lot of bleating and a veritable ocean of booze. They can keep the eggnog.
I suppose it's too late to direct the audience to the T-shirt concession in the foyer. There's always the movie rights....I wonder who'll be playing me?

The audience did seem in an awful tear to get out.
Do they have any Evil Twin t-shirts?

In a bar across the street, innit?
Fortunately or otherwise, the venue having shifted to North America, we can find a bar that's open until 4 a.m., instead of having to worry about British laws from World War I aimed at keeping the proles getting to bed early.
Just make sure they admit sheep.
