Internet is a bitch, these days even more than before. It's up and down and up and so on. Of course I could never make myself hate it, because it's such a cute little thing that makes your life happier and shinier. And as they say it just wants to play.
Tomorrow some people from the university theatre group are meeting up to try out the make-up for our current play. 25th is first night... and as always things aren't exactly running smoothly, but who cares? You need the adrenaline, lol.
I'll need to have put on the make up for one of my roles... which is still very unstable. I hadn't even expected to get it when I auditioned. Actually I haven't even auditioned for that particular role... See, we're performing one of Terry Pratchett's books again which was adapted for stage. And that particular role, let's call him by his name, Greebo (!) Have a look:
In human form, Greebo looks like a 'beautiful, brainless bully' who has raided a leather goods store for the discerning pirate, and appears ready to unbuckle any amount of swash, radiating an aura of raw sex that can be felt several rooms away, and of a Megawatt magnitude. He is typically covered in scars, has retractable nails (or more accurately, claws) and maintains a slitted left eye.
The incident left him with an unstable phenotype, that is, a tendency to temporarily switch forms when completely cornered, which causes some excitement. In Maskerade he once more took longer-term human shape, attending the Ankh-Morpork Opera in the guise of the Count Gribeau.
wiki That's where we're going to. You know, an extra-hunky type of guy. It's just - I can do 'raw sex'-style as a woman... but even though I'm playing males on a regular basis, I'm not 'hunky'-manly. During one of our previous plays I was told by the girls of the group I looked like Johnny Depp while I was in the middle of my making-up for the performance, lol. Not denying that I loved to hear THAT very much.
Personally, as I'm not a raving fan of Pratchett, but know lots of other stuff, I envision the dear kitty in his human form as a mixture of Xena's Ares and my lovely Saiyajin no Ouji Vegeta *rawr* Now that makes me purr... You know, someone like Colin Farell or Tommy Lee, strutting around the red carpet in an 'I'm the king of the ring, except that maybe I ain't, but I don't give a flying fuck because my dick is like thaaaaaaat'-manner. Hmm, ya ya...
I think, after all, I might want to read some of the DiscWorld stuff.
