Summertime, and the Livin' is Busy (& Awesome)

I have officially embarked on my first summer season with Opera House Arts. And it is ALL THE THINGS.


First off, it's always fun being the new kid on the block.


The folks I work with are buckets of awesome and completely the right kind of crazy - casually dropping into conversations their love of Empire Records and Step Up 2: The Streets.



Plus, they frequently request mid-day singalong/dance breaks.


And very little could eclipse the collective joy we felt when Magical Intern tracked down that taxidermied seagull we all wanted.


Then, of course, there's the place itself. Seriously, look at this view:


Which sometimes includes pirate ships.


It's July, which means that it's not completely freezing in Maine anymore.


And the summer artists are arriving.



There are so many amazing shows coming up, it's bananas. Of course, this means we're a little bit busy...


...but that just has us holding ourselves to a higher standard...



...and forging forward together....


...as a team.



So, all in all...my new job? I'm okay with it...



And what are all of you up to this summer?
