The Cast

"Not well? What is sickness to the body of a knight-errant? What matter wounds? For each time he falls he shall rise again...and woe to the wicked!" -p. 88

so i had a cold through the whole play and then woke up saturday morning (last day of the musical) and had 100% lost my voice (which, of course, had never happened before). and i was crushed. but mr ervin coached me to at least be able to speak a couple hours before the show. and i also don't think people realized i had laryngitis, so they prolly thought i was just a terrible singer :-P
