I emailed Kevin last week about the Sam French Festival dates. He emailed me back saying all he'd heard was June 18 (for us--his play goes up June 10 or 11 so he's even more screwed). Left a message for Matt two days ago, he emailed me yesterday saying he wants to do SF but needs to know the dates ASAP, beacuse he has a wedding to attend. ( Read more... )

Wayne and I have been exchanging emails about the show:

Me: I'm on 62 today, sitting in for Naomi Wiesen's assistant. Come down if you get a chance so we can trash some of the other shows last night!

Wayne: Fair enough. I just need a few hours to inflate my aero-bed and I'll be right there.

Me: Maybe you can dance down the halls ( Read more... )

Craziness. Crazy day today. Melissa (my Atrium counselor) called me at 9 am (waking me up)--to confirm that I was available to work that day. Grr. Yes, as I told your assistant yesterday. They're so nice at Atrium but sometimes the left hand don't know what the right is doing. So she didn't call back, I fell back asleep and woke up at 11:45 ( Read more... )

Uh. Exhausted today. I stayed up too late last night putting together Doug's costume for Hillside. I hope it works.

While I was sewing, I watched a program on the History Channel about the search for Noah's Ark on Mount Ararat in Turkey. Fa-sci-na-ting. Absolutely fascinating. Apparently there have been many sightings over the years--a ( Read more... )

I burned my very first CD last night! Duncan and I had tried to do it at rehearsal--we needed to make the sound cue CD for "A Hillside in Hell"--but couldn't figure it out, so I brought my laptop back home. It was actually pretty easy to figure out, we just couldn't do it while people were waiting (as Doug and Matt were, to rehearse ( Read more... )

I walked down to Union Square this afternoon to pick up the postcards for the festival. When I first started out around 3:30 it was apocalyptically gloomy--I was thinking "this must be what Blade Runner NYC looks like during the day." Then it started spitting. Then misting--then misting with motivation. Then raining. I got to work very damp, ( Read more... )

Feel MUCH better today. Last night I was so tired it took me forever to get to bed. I was up for a bit fiddling with my new laptop and playing with this and that. Tonight after rehearsal I'm going to download desktop themes and then listen to CDs. Maybe I'll even...burn...some. I'm so daring ( Read more... )

Rehearsal last night went very well. I blocked pretty much all of the show, since Prometheus has no blocking to speak of (he just hangs there). I added an opening sequence before the dialogue starts, wherein Sisyphus pushes the Rock up three times and the Rock rolls down every time. This will be done in half-light, and Duncan suggested music as ( Read more... )

Ladies and gentlemen....

We have a Prometheus. Mike's friend Doug agreed to do A Hillside in Hell.

Woo hoo!

This has been the most difficult play I've had to cast so far. Three such specific types. Thank God we can finally start.
