Post-show depression — When a show ends, and you feel sad, empty, and like you have no purpose. You invested months of your life nursing this performance to perfection. Your whole life revolved around rehearsal, rehearsal and more rehearsal. Now what?

1. It's like a bad breakup.

2. You have too much free time.

3. Your daily routine is sabotaged.

Wake up. Go to class. Rehearsal. Repeat.

Now?

4. There goes your physical activity for the day.

5. You randomly feel the need to break out into choreo.

6. You miss the fun warm ups.

"Sally sells seashells by the seashore."

"Red leather, yellow leather. Red leather, yellow leather."

"A big black bear bit a big black bug and the big black bug bled black blood."

7. You realize you have no friends.

8. Loss of motivation.

9. You try to keep the group chat alive and thriving.

10. You can't stop thinking about the music.

11. If someone says a word or phrase that relates to a line in the show, you immediately freak out.

12. You can't stop watching clips from the show.

13. You count down the days until the next audition.
