It’s a fact of life that men need a break between clients so we try to break up the day into sections. As well as slots where we perform together I do some solo or guest double acts, which gives him a break. He pays me back by working alone sometimes too. How do other couples manage this situation?
This is one (of many) reasons why I’m glad that I’m a gal and that I work with other ladies! Not that it’s always easy to perform, especially after a long shift.
It’s true, us men do need those breaks! I can perform a maximum of 3 or 4 shows a day, and that’s pushing it. Luckily, my wife is able and also willing to do some shows by herself and she enjoys it. I enjoy it too, it helps me get ready for the next show together. 🙂
