No, I'm not having a nightmare about waking up as a high school student (although that would be pretty scary!) I went to see my cousin's play tonight called "Lucky Stiff". My cousin wasn't in the play ... she helped with make-up. Nonetheless, it was an entertaining and well-done performance.
The quality and calibre of the students' performance was quite good. Tonight was the last performance ... so my cousin went to the cast party to celebrate their success. Here's just one shot of the night. :) (see above)
The behind the scenes people are just as important as those who perform onstage. It's easy to forget about these "invisible", but without them, the show wouldn't go on. In a way, librarians tend to be unsung heroes since no one really knows what they do!
Casting back to an assignment (interview) I had to do in first term, I remember learning how ignorant people were of what librarians and information specialists really do. And there's a belief out there that librarians know everything ... which we apparently are supposed to work to keep up that belief ;) I don't know everything, but I am willing to learn ways to track down information. Maybe librarians are just detectives in disguise as mild-mannered folks.
