Love is always lovely...
I went out to see The Drowsy Chaperone last night, and I thought it was amazing. Bob Saget was great as the Man in the Chair. Mara Davi was absolutely amazing and beautiful and...I kind of wish I could be like her. The entire cast was phenominal. And everyone at the Marquis Theatre- the girl doing the lottery, the man at the box office, the ushers, the actors, the man at the stage door- they were all so incredibly sweet.
I was nearly crying at the end of the show, though. It's just...I know how the Man in the Chair feels sometimes. Whenever I feel upset, I automatically go to my showtunes. When I left Avenue Q in August, I just wanted to get involved with theatre somehow, so much that it almost physically hurt. I left Drowsy hating myself for quitting dance ten years ago. I shouldn't. I was nine at the time. How was I to know that I'd fall in love with theatre?
But that's okay. I'm going to take dance lessons through NYU in the spring and then next spring, after I study abroad for a semester, I'll take classes at the Broadway Dance Center. I'm going to practice singing on my own before trying to take voice lessons, since I don't want to completely embarrass myself. I'm looking into acting classes that aren't at NYU, since I only have a limited number of credits outside of CAS. I'm also looking at careers involving theatre that don't require me to be on stage.
I truly promise I'll update this more, once I'm situated. I will be involved with theatre. Somehow.
