So it turns out that putting on a play is a hell of a lot of work. But it's also really really fun. I think I would be having 4 times more fun, however, if I had been trained in directing, set design, lighting, etc. I'm seriously considering saving up to go to the Portland Actors Conservatory or some other drama program when I finish up here. Of course, I'm also seriously considering several other options including Hawaii still and even somewhere in the back of my mind, reconsidering meditation training. Just cause my brother is so damn happy. And I'd like to be like that.
But yeah, the actors conservatory has people working on all aspects of the theater and participating in various productions. It's quite near to PSU and I saw a really great production of "The Blue Room" there last year. It's definitely on my list of places I'd like to go to learn things. Who says I can't start an acting career at 33? Well, common sense might. But screw common sense. When has common sense ever given me anything I really cared about? Pretty much never, that's when.
Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying their lives.
I'll check back in again soon, but "soon" is very flexible and may not be til after the play.
Love,
Jen
