Cast parties...two words: very interesting! I was recently introduced to these sessions of madness and mayhem (and mindless sexual advances) when I attended the cast party for "Hello, Dolly!" from 11pm Saturday to 6am Sunday morning. And believe me, they live up to every aspect of that description! Aside from the perpetual movies and people on waaaay too much caffeine, I think everyone was just REALLY glad the play was over. Or I was at least! Anyways, if you ever get the chance to go to one, I totally recommend it...they're fun and exciting. As long as you participate in the fun anyway...if you just sit there, you'll hate it. (Although spectating from under the dining room table is totally allowed Staci!)

Things to Remember When Attending a Cast Party:

• Try not to get roped into playing strip euchre (unless you're really good!)
• Pay no attention to the perpetual orgy going on in one corner of the room
• Avoid watching the tape of the play AT ALL COSTS!
• Don't swim in a hot tub when its snowing
• Do NOT open the door on a game of Spin the Bottle...especially if certain people are playing!

Things To Remember If You Get Roped Into Playing Strip Euchre

• DON'T put the losers clothes outside the door as they lose them...or you may find them later in the hot tub (we didn't...but that's where they were originally headed!)
• Always remember there are NO SPECTATORS in strip euchre
• Screaming "SHIT WE'RE GONNA LOSE!" *does*, in fact, increase your chances of winning.
• If you don't know how to stack...learn...QUICKLY.
