Please remember after all the hard work that Gary has mentioned still is NO Guarantee that after your First performance you'll be returning....why? because it all boils down what you do on stage while performing at the facility......
FIRST Impressions are everything the AD & The Residents will determine if you return for sure.........I would recomend going to see some of the top NH entertainers perform so you know what your up against.....ask the AD's when their favorites will be there & go sit in the audience observe & absorb.

Good Luck
