Time To Vent
Today was the first rehearsal for tall angels. Let me just remind everyone reading this how much i hate that dance first of all. easiest thing of my life, and i don't do nutcracker so i can just not come to rehearsal and still know a dance, i do it because i love the performing and what not.
Anyway, most embarrassing event of my life. There were girls there who were in 8th grade, and some freshmen. Susanna watched last years nutcracker tape to review the steps, and katie and i announced that we could teach it, and she gave us a bad look and was like "i know i know i know". Fuck off susanna, we really could.
We also learned today that people like Maria, Dierdra, and Erica aren't tall angels, but Jess, Katie, and I are. Now, i have nothing against Maria Dierdra and Erica, im just saying they have 3 or 4 years of nutcracker left, where as Katie Jess and I have 1 after this. And they're perfectly capable of doing the dance (not like its challenging or anything) so why don't we put them in?
And while rehearsing there were 3 girls sitting on the sides, and Susanna asked them what they were doing. They said they were understudies. 3 understudies? why the hell aren't THEY in it? they're capable of doing it to!!!
And another thing. At the end of tall angels, all the soloists come out (in this case, all the graduating seniors) and then 6 "flowers" from waltz come on to the stage as well. Now who will these flowers be? Usually they're girls who are in waltz of the flowers, but don't have solos (that should be me katie jess leanna kara etc). However, Katie Jess and I are already on stage as angels. So i repeat the question, who will be the flowers? will they dress maria dierdra and erica up as flowers just for that little section? Thats a waste. The only logical thing to do is to take Katie, Jess, and I out of angles, put in 3 of the aprox. 9 people who could do it, and let us be in waltz.
Lets recap. I hate this dance, and if i do not get another part (and hopefully a better part) i will quit. I will sit Susanna down, tell her how horrible still being in angles makes me feel (honestly, 4 years in the same dance, who wouldn't feel bad about themselves after that?) and tell her that it just isn't worth it for me and that im leaving.
In Conclusion: I hate susanna and tall angels. Go Red Sox.
