XD We'd been talking all through tech about how someone would fall off the stage at that point in the show. And I knew it would be me. It was inevitable.

I was making my Dramatic Exit during a blackout as a witch in Macbeth. There were stairs from the stage to the wings, and I grabbed the railing with my left hand and ran off, but alas, the railing I grabbed was the right. At least I only ended up with a few bruises.

I was actually stuck under the stage once (it was this raised platform stage) when some netting hanging under it as part of the set caught fire. I was playing a street urchin, and ended up having to jump ON the stage and run across it during an upper class party scene. I'm sure it confused the audience. Luckily, they put out the fire before anyone noticed that.

That's okay, last night I fell down both flights of stairs in my house. Right after each other.

It was very magical looking as I just kept walking after each time I fell -- as though nothing happened. My family is worried about me now.
