A Staged Reading

This evening, ANW hosted a public staged reading of a play and I got to greet people at the door. The audience community was generous, friendly, and thrilled to be at the show. They waited outside early and were eager to take their seats. I was personally introduced to many patrons and some said they were reading the blog! (Thank you!)

There is this sense of happiness that fills the office and extends to the theater. I feel like I'm really a member of a team. The shows could not happen without generous supporters as well as people behind the scenes. I am beginning to see how important each individual person is to this company.

So far I've been making phone calls, recording numbers, cataloging items and doing organization work -- and I love it, even when things get tedious. I want to finish my assignments so that I can keep doing more. You would think that a college student would want more than anything to get out of an office - I don't. I guess it's because I can see that I am significant here, that my work is really making a difference. It's a really rewarding feeling.
