I hope that your back pain will be better soon! I hate back pains as it has such an impact on what you do. You can always feel it so I can imagine that it's difficult for an artist to paint with pain.
I'm sorry to hear about your performance. People are different and some of them feel like they have to express their opinions whether it makes sense or not. I struggle with accepting that but that's how it is. I hope that this issue will be resolved and that you will get more diversity on the stage so that no one can complain. Well, there will always be someone to complain :)
Have a nice day!
Thank you, @delishtreats! I already feel almost entirely better, it's just so disconcerting when you don't even know what you did to injure yourself. Past thirty, apparently you can even just sleep in a weird position and have to deal with that for days. Lol.
As for the performance - that in itself was pretty good. We had only compliments from the people who came to see the show. Anyone is allowed to criticize, of course. Now and again, we all need to be kept in check to make sure we don't cross the line from edgy to offensive. And to grow as performers. We can all do better, but nobody tends to without a push. :)
Diversity is a must, though. We need to tackle that problem yesterday!
