OK, so I made a mistake and did all of my lecture reading a class early...so I had no homework last night (I only have one class on Wednesdays).
I could have done the work that is due tomorrow, but...I didn't.
No, I curled up on one of the sketchy-smelling beanbag chairs in the library and watched The Prime Example Of Why It's Better For Me To Go Without Stage Makeup Because It Literally Makes Me Look Like A Bulldog...or, in layman's terms, Hamletta.
Because I totally have that with me, along with Terrible Gods.
I was so upset the night they filmed that because I had just gotten horrible relationship news, or as horrible as you can get when you're fourteen and still nursing a seven year crush on someone (that thankfully ended the next summer), plus the show got rained out and we had to film inside. And we had a fucking awesome set.
Anyway...I was wondering, because I am a huge nerd, who would be who if they did it at SLC...Here's what I had for starters.
Hamletta...I could see a couple people in this role. I think Amanda Kruger would be great, but my first thought was Alia Jacobson.
Hamilton King...Um, nobody can play this part but Owen.
Claude King...Ross Wade
Trudy King...Erica Steiner
Polli...Katie Hartman...this was SUCH a Julia Cain part and Katie reminds me a lot of Julia
Ophelia...Aviva Laufer
Laurel...Jillian Fisher
Fortinbras...Steph Long Alanna Coby
Nellie Cornelius...Becca Madell
The Other Lawyer Whose Name Escapes Me But Liora Played Her...Eve Rybnick
Oscarina...Meaghan Cross
Reynaldo...Carmen Zilles
Harry...Hunter Kaczorowski
Bernie...Gloria Munoz
Marky Mark...Jordan Ungerer
Paparazzi...OMG TOTAL CAMEO ROLES...Ernest Abuba and Doug MacHugh like whoa.
Beautiful Money
Maxi Paddington...Brad Harris
Glamora Ego...Pam Rice (just because that part was so much fun)
Zenith Hightower...Devin Bokaer
Aquanetta Hairdeaux (I am making up last names)...Sarah Thomas
Asendo DaStaircase...Rachel McKay
I really think it would be freaking hilarious to have faculty play the wacky doctors. I nominate Shirley, Allen and Jim Shearwood even though he doesn't teach undergrads anymore.
I forget what Rosenkrantz and Guildenstern did in Hamletta so I will have to rewatch it to do my casting.
