calm after the storm
So after a few weeks of craziness it is finally back to normal.
The last few weeks I have actually finally performed in my very first musical. Since January I have been rehersing to take part in the musical Oklahoma. Although this is not my first time doing something on a stage, it is my first time performing in a real theatre with a real theatre company. It was intimidating to say the least, but we had a fantastic cast and crew. Opening night I thought I would have stage fright, but to my surprise I was fine and got on stage did my dance/singing/acting bit and ta-da applause. Two weeks sounds like a short time, but doing 20 shows during that period really wears you out. Now we have the fun of the after parties to enjoy....yeah.
I was part of the male ensemble, not a big part but good to get my feet wet. Here are some pics of me on stage and one taking a rest between scene - and yes - that is all my belly (too many pancakes). Also I got to dance with a real gun (loaded with blanks and shoot it off - woot)
Next season I want to try out for peter pan. No, not as Peter - but as part of the pirates - they have so much fun. ARRRRRR.
Now that things are back to normal I can enjoy the spring - albiet the temps have cooled off a bit - it is still spring!!
