I'm Done 'The Play That Goes Wrong!' (Patreon)

Here's a little post to wrap up my time being in The Play That Goes Wrong at Whitby Courthouse Theatre in Whitby, ON, Canada!

First off, and most importantly, I am back to doing comics and art every day, and will schedule out Sketch Commission Streams starting next week or so, I am in the process of catching up, thank you for letting me have my little indulgence.

Now onto the show!

It went VERY well, the show was hilarious to do every weekend, the cast was so unique and talented, the crew were spot on with their tasks each show, and the audiences were vastly different each night in what they laughed at, but always loved me, which was part of my character.

The show is a show-within-a-show, so I, Tyler Mann, vore artist, played Max Bennett, an actor in the Cornley Drama Society, who plays Cecil Haversham and Arthur The Gardener in the play The Murder At Haversham Manor. At the end of Act 1, Cecil gets murdered, and in Act 2 I show up as another character. Max quickly finds out the audience is laughing at our 'serious murder mystery show' and gets to do a bunch of silly stuff to keep them laughing. A lot of it is improvised with what the audience laughs at, or calls out to me during the show. At one point my stage manager said I was 'doing far too much and need to reign it in', but other than that, it was a joy to be my dream character.

The only thing I disliked was travelling back and forth to Whitby, which was always a 1.5 hr transit trip on the bus. A few cast and crew were happy to drive me to the bus stops, and I also Uber'd quite a lot so I can get home sooner, but I was always exhausted. However, there was no way I was giving up the chance to be in my dream show, and role. It was an unpaid volunteer thing, cause it was community theatre, but again, I really wanted to do this at least once in my life, I feel like I will never get another opportunity to be in a show Mischief created.

Huge thanks to my family and friends who made the trek to Whitby to see it, Thomas, Barry, Leslie, Kathy, Adam, Anna, Connie, Nico, and Eugene.

I think I am done with theatre for a little, at least for a few months while I clear out my commission queue, get these Funhouse books done, and back to some stable financial income. Improv and stuff will have to wait. I got vore to draw baby!

That's all for now, I'll share more pics and videos later on, but that's a wrap on the production! I was so happy to be a part of it!
