I'm going to go with performances for now, since after rehearsals, everyone is pooped, at least with the casts I've hung around.

Sometimes, some of the cast go out to El Torito or another restaurant for drinks and kareoke. If my mom is there with me, they'd get a seperate table and still get drinks. LOL...but it's still fun to talk and stuff.

Post edited for clarification.

Yeah, I'm going with performances too. Usually, someone picks a restaraunt and the whole cast tries to go there. We all eat to much, drink, and have lots of fun. :)

Normally, my favorite thing to do is go home and rest!

BUT, one time, this was after the first show I did with my 7th grade (I was the lead, I was so proud of myself for singing out the 8th graders). I was drained from it being my first challenging (and it was, our teacher is a total music snob and has to be the best so it was big extravagant and HARD!) musical. BUT, my aunt and uncle and there kids were hungry, so they wanted to go to dinner and celebrate. I still had my costume and make-up on and we went to Hall's.

They ate this big dinner,a nd what did I get? A MILKSHAKE!! THAT'S IT!!! JSUT THAT!!!

I was so pissed. I was tired, angry, wanted home, and I felt like puking, literaly (really old school means mold and hotness, really hot lights and heavy costume means sickness for me; it wasn't like normal spot light heat, it was like FIRE!). We were there for a freakin' hour to, because my aunt thought something was wrong with the food.

GRRRRRAAAAHHHHRRRRGGGG!!!!! OK, just had to get that out, I have been holding it forever.

A few summers ago when I was in The Music Man, I'd get a Dairy Queen Oreo blizzard after every rehearsal, and take a bath when I got home. It's not exactly crazy-crazy, but it's what I did.

After "Fantasticks" rehearsal every night (and now "Beauty and the Beast") Luisa (now Belle) and I would go to Burger King . . . so much that they know us by name now. Disturbing.

Hmm just genereally go out with some awesome people in the casts. Usually we go out to eat or soemthing.

When I was Hook in Peter Pan, after every rehearsal I would eat a tuna sandwich and read the paper. However, I normally HATE tuna and NEVER EVER read the paper----so weird, but i had to do it after EVERY SINGLE REHEARSAL.

After my summer show this year (we only did one show... I was pissed, I think we should have done more), which was Anything Goes (I was Reno ), the entire cast went to a diner nearby and took up the whole back room. I don't know why, but I was the last one to get there, and when I walked in, the entire room burst into applause... it was so cool, haha.

Well, two "crazy" ones that came to mind are...

1) Skinny-dipping in a private lake (without the owner's permission) with about 30 other cast members.

2) Going to a gay bar in town to dance with an entire cast of about 30 mostly straight actors and actresses (including a few celebrities).

One time after a rehearsal for Footloose a few leads in the cast went to Panera where they call your name when you order your food and such. We each ordered but gave them our characters names! It was hilarious to hear Ren, Ariel, Reverand, Willard, or mine, Rusty. When my name was called I had a hard time keeping a straight face because the people there were looking at me like "huh...you're name is rusty..."

The more theatre you do, the more "after rehearsal" stories you'll have.

The coolest story I have is that after one rehearsal for Bat Boy: The Musical the director organized a night where the whole cast had to go out to the nearby Applebee and we had to stay completely in character throughout the whole thing. Imagine the waitress's (who knew a few people anyway) suprise as she talked to a bunch of faux-southerners and a half-bat. It was fantastic.

Well at least you weren't doing "Sweeney Todd." That could have been repulsive.

After every opening night performance of every show in the season at my school, everyone in the department (were they in the show or not) goes to an Irish pub downtown and completely floods the place. It's great.

We usually went to the diner in high school. Now, living the college life, we head out to a bar.
