I've been posting some of my original art to my DevArt lately...

Last quarter I worked costumes on the student production of Time and the Conways. (By the way, this play is allegedly the inspiration for "Carnival of Monsters"!)

For a closing night gift, I drew the cast in their Act II (1937) costumes.

Fifteen books you've read that will always stick with you. First fifteen you can recall in no more than fifteen minutes. (In no particular order)

1. Something Wicked This Way Comes - Ray Bradbury My parents read this to me at an impressionable age. Some of the most beautiful, haunting prose I've ever read.
2. Brave ( Read more... )

First off, hullo to the new people from the Classic Who Friending Meme!

I've been really busy the last three weeks with a lot of theatre stuff, and thus no updates. I have been running costumes for the student production of Time and the Conways (J. B. Priestly, 1937). It is about an English family's hopes and loves at the end of WWI and a ( Read more... )

Whee, this is a catch-up post full of all sorts of delicious things, like theatre, presidents, and recipes!

First of all, I have thinky and analytical thoughts on Frost/Nixon and Doubt at my theatre blog, surabaya_johnny, HERE. Film adaptations of plays totally count if I say they do! I'd love to discuss them with you guys if you've seen 'em ( Read more... )

I've had a hell of an exhausting week. I've had a bad cold, extra historical redrawings to do, and two midterms, but now I'm done! Among other things, I am going to bed early tonight. Right after US!Life on Mars. Goodnight. (It could be so much better, but then again it be worse. I'm liking the Ray and Chris-- still think the main problem is ( Read more... )

Hey guys, in order to try and get employers and such interested in my theatre writing, I've started a separate LJ to blog about theatre. I've got a review of the revival of A Chorus Line up and hopefully I'll have a review of a local production of Aphra Behn's The Rover written by the end of the week. Feel free to friend that and read the reviews ( Read more... )

I'm a terrible person. XD

Amy: Awesome, I have two, maybe three theatre classes with you next quarter, Rebecca!
Ashley: Ah theatre majors; you'll probably starve to death. I'd rent rooms to you, and you'd keep going "I know I'll get my big break!" "I mean it this time!"
Rebecca: Yeah, but you know what happens when we decide not to PAY the rent, ( Read more... )

My roommate is watching something called Legally Blonde the Musical: The Search for the Next Elle Woods. I am listening to Follies with my headphones and I can still hear those pink-clad harpies auditioning. Ohmygod you guys, WHY?! Sure, people have been saying theatre is dead for centuries, but adding reality tv to the mix is a newfangled ( Read more... )

Man I wish I lived in New York right now. (I console myself that it's 37º F in New York with a chance of rain. It's 60ºF and breezy in Santa Barbara and I'm just fine in my T-shirt and blazer. If I do end up studying abroad in the UK, the main thing I fear is the weather!) But still, why I want to be in New York this week:

A new revival of ( Read more... )

Bold the ones you've seen stage productions of, italicize the ones you've seen filmed versions of (including TV versions, like the BBC's), underline the ones you've read or listened to, and add a star* to any you've performed in, done readings of or otherwise theatrically participated.

( Verdict: Not half bad for 19 years )
