Tonight was the last performance of Twelve Angry Men. While we were striking the set some piece of shit stole the box office. He waited until most of us were in the loading dock and one of our producers, an older woman named Cinda was out front by herself. He grabbed the box from her hands and ran. A few people, including Cinda's husband (our Juror #8) Rick took off after the guy but lost him as he ran across the Town Lake pedestrian bridge.

Nobody was hurt but Cinda was devestated and reduced to tears. She was especially worried about Rick who isn't in the best of health and is scheduled for knee surgery next Monday. Finally, everyone came back, a bit winded but with cash box in hand. Unfortunately, the scumbag took all but a few dollars in cash and all of the checks before dropping the box. All in all, he made off with over a $1000. Worse, he marred what should have otherwise been a happy occasion.

The cops showed up and took fingerprints off the box but I honestly doubt the little shit will ever be caught. The important thing is that nobody was hurt. I had some HUGE problems with the show but overall I enjoyed my time back on stage and you would be hard put to find a nicer group of people to work with. It's just a shame it had to end like this.
