I really haven't posted in here in quite a while. Why, you say? Because I've had no time. Really. It's about as easy as that. I can finally type fine now and write correctly after my busted hand incident last week:
We were in rehearsal for Suicide Kings and One Eyed Jacks and someone was doing a cartwheel. Unfortunately it was too close and I got kicked in the hand. It tensed up and I couldn't move it I was sure whether it was sprained or fractured or what. It's been wrapped up since then and I've been slowly getting flexibility back in it. I can almost make a complete fist. I no longer need to have it wrapped and that makes me happy.
Hokay more updates:
Grapes of Wrath was incredible. I absolutely loved working with Sheila. It was also one of my best directorial experiences I've ever had.
The 2nd run of Suicide Kings was a trip. The performance itself was great in Torpe. ACTF came and said a lot of good and constructive things. They nominated 3 people from it (because we wanted it to get held...which it is) and I was one of the nominees. :) Yay.
Now I'm in 9 Parts of Desire now and the rehearsal process is difficult. I'm not off book (even though I'm supposed to be for this week) and it's a lot of text. But, ya know what? The experience is really good. I've been getting better and better at memorizing. Because all this semester I've been constantly having to memorize more than one things at a time. With shows overlapping as well as work in Acting IV, all this work is really challenging me.
For next semester I am directing a show (which apparently is the touring show....although I had no intention of making it such) I still need to pick exactly which one I'm doing. I'm torn between a couple of ideas.
I'm also getting ready for Tempest auditions. I'm nervous but excited.
And then there's getting my applications out. Yikes.
On Dec 24th I will be on a plane to Colorado! I get to see my family for a week and a half! It makes me happy. I can't wait.
And finally, Thanksgiving will be spent with my father and his girlfriend. Yes, girlfriend. YAHOO! I'm so happy.
Besides are those things I'm still working 2 jobs and going to classes and rehearsals. I also have an internship with Hartford Stage next semester. Whoo...
And I'm spent.
