Story time
So, I'm in a production of Hairspray at the theater company I do programs with. Yesterday, our director and choreographer were complimenting us on our dance review. After almost every song they told us about how much we had improved. After I Can Hear the Bells, our choreographer was telling the girl who plays Penny that she would be perfect for tv and commercial work. Penny was smiling and nodding, and starts crying after a little bit. Our choreographer asked her if she was ok, then said, "do you guys never get told this stuff??" We all shake our heads as Amber proceeds to explain what it's like in the yearly program at this place. Our director then says, 'we like to tell you this stuff because what if something happened tomorrow? You would have walked away never know how good we think you are' And I just thought that she was right and that it is so important to make sure that when you see that someone has improved at something, tell them how proud you are. Receiving Honest compliments is one of the greatest feelings in life
