Today marks the beginning of one of the busiest weeks I've had in ages. All good things, I'm happy to say, but still, it's going to run me ragged.
Today I drove to the Berkshires to have the rehearsal for my staged reading of The Triumph of Law, my ten-minute play. Tomorrow I will go back in the evening to film the reading itself for presentation on a local public access TV show called PlayCafe. The lady who runs the show was really good to me and found me a great cast, and the rehearsal went really well. I'm looking forward to the recording tomorrow night. The only downside is the driving, which I hate. Williamstown, MA is three hours away by car, and I had to go there and back today, and will have to do it again tomorrow.
Wednesday is our last rehearsal for our
staged reading of Mrs. Hawking with Bare Bones. Then on Thursday the 11th we have our real performance, which begins at 8PM at 6 William Street, Unity Church in Somerville, MA. I really hope you can make it, because this is a cool piece that I'm very proud of, and I'm really honored to have this cast and crew representing it. There will be a talkback afterward, for discussion and feedback! Way cool!
Then this weekend is Festival of the Larps, one of my favorite weekends of the year. For the first time ever, I am not playing anything, but I am running lots. Friday night I will be there for The Prince Comes of Age, a wonderful game I loved when I was in the first run. Saturday morning is Agent Bobo of the Resistance, our award-winning Iron GM game, probably unlike anything you've ever played before. Saturday afternoon I'll be assisting natbudin to run A Garden of Forking Paths, another game I had a fantastic time in. And finally, on Sunday I'll be running Break a Leg, my funny short game about the dysfunctional theater troupe.
All good things. Here's hoping I don't collapse.
