Another horrible one last night...
I stayed.
Actually it wasn't as painful as the other one and the seating was more awkward.
I realise of course that people must have felt like this in my shows as well. Although if I'm honest I find it very difficult to really face that fact.
It's interesting what we will go to again and again even though it isn't good, in the hope that one of them will be good. And what we won't. I think this is the more important factor in success - not what the good ones are like but what you feel about the bad ones.
Not sure how you capture that.
