I drive 46 miles round trip five days a week for two months. I spend a minimum of three hours rehearsing each night in a bay that is either too hot, too cold, too dusty, too cramped or a combination of three out of the four. I spend time at home and in the car practicing songs and learning lines. I spend personal time scouring Goodwill, Salvation Army and Amvets for costume pieces. I drive 40 miles round trip to the theatre for six shows, two weekends.
The difference between "professional" and "non-professional" theatre? A professional would be doing it for the money.
