This is a wierd one... and I'm waffling on it. You guys have such great advice, I thought I'd get some outside opinions.
One of the guests at MY show, before I was a consultant, booked an early May show with my director, who recruited me. The date wound up getting moved, to today, and now I am a consultant. When the date got moved, I sent her an email (with my director's blessing) reminding her I'd officially be a consultant, and would love to do her show, so I can do my early shows with friends. (It would have been my 2nd show.)
I didn't hear back from her, so I didn't push it, and my director said she'd called her and basically said, we had so much fun with you at Joyce's show, we'd prefer you did it. She never said ANYTHING to me.
I did however get invited to the show. And my director says I can have any bookings that come off it.
I just feel wierd about the whole thing. I don't think there's any malice there, but I do wish she'd just been straight with me about it. This is a lady I used to go to church with, and I'll know everyone at the party, because they're from my old church.
I just kind of feel like I'd be there begging for bookings, so I'm trying to find a way to go and feel comfortable about it. One minute I think I'm not even going to show up, and the next I think that I'd be crazy to miss the opportunity for bookings. I have host packages made up and ready to go. I just have to get ME geared up to want to go.
Anyone been there, done that?
