Hopefully one day, a walking Broadway encyclopidia...and other ramblings
I've been spending my Thurday afternoons visiting the Jones library picking up requests I've made. I've been trying to build up my cast album experience. I now own mp3s of musicals I have long heard of such as I Remember Mama, Carnival, Gospel at Colonus, and I Love My Wife so I'm excited to listen to them. I mean, not that my collection is puny, but I always feel stupid when someone mentions a musical I haven't heard before or a new book that came out I don't know about.
Anyway, I'm excited because I also got Jerry's Girls which I hated when I did it at Stagedoor when I was 16, but have a sort of nostalgic fondness for now, and I'm excited to hear
There is an audition on the 15th in the city for the Cohoes County Playhouse, a regional theater in upstate NY. They're doing Throughly Modern Millie, Ragtime and Sound of Music. Now obviously there is no way I could do Millie, but I think I could totally chorus Ragtime (as an immigrant as no one can seen to indentify my ethnicity. The OBC had TWO, count 'em TWO fat immigrant chicks...one with a baby (so much for desexualizing the fat girl!))for a Broadway show that's pretty damn impressive!) or even nun in SOM's case. It's also a union/non-union audition meaning a salary without the whole "sorry kid, ain't getting seen for this" thing. Now if I can just work up the guts to audition.
The only thing that confuses me is that they're pretty due North of NYC like Poughkeepsie yet they say it takes only 2 and a half hours to get there, which is funny because according to yahoo maps it takes 4 hours to get from NYC to Cohoes.
Graduation is only two weeks away, and while I'm not going, I'm somehow getting nervous. I'm also super excited to see Audra with good seats, not the nosebleeds like last time. Second row in Boston. Well it looks more like a pew according to the seating chart, but whatever. I'm almost in tears thinking about it. How much has that woman done for me without even knowing it? *Sigh*
I'm probably screwing myself over but "I Wish I Were In Love Again". As much as I still think of Noah, it's not really the panging pain of love I feel, more nostalgia. Love, unrequited anyway, hurts. But there is something magical at the same time. Just living for another human being...
Oh God, I sound like Fosca now.
Too bad that was last December when I was unemotional.
And now soon, off into the big wide world where I really don't have any solid friends or family, and don't have a reliable skill or talent.
I'm Scared.
