What the ...
Theatre News:
Okay, so I've accepted a part in a show in North Conway! God, what's the matter with me? (rhetorical question). I actually really like the show and the part is very challenging. The show is "Dinner With Friends". I'm playing "Tom". The drive is not so bad. It's a two hour drive, but it's kinda nice to have that alone time. Plus, I can study lines in that time. Seems like a nice group of people. I figure it's the summer/fall time, I've been wanting to do shows with other companies, I've told Mark DeLancey that I'd do a show with his group (M&D). So I think it's a good time to do it. I think it'll be a good experience.
I was called today and offered a part in "The Mousetrap". Obviously, I couldn't accept it...funny thing is I would've done the show. I can't seem to say no. I still plan to audition for "You Can't Take It With You". I don't know how I'm gonna work this, but I'm going to try. I still wish they hadn't canceled "Midsummer Night's Dream". I really wanted to do that show. It's one thing I still need to do...Shakespeare.
"The Odd Couple" is going very well. And the show goes up in a couple weeks. It's a fun show, fun cast. I've done considerable work on a show (with some help) I plan to pitch to NTG this fall. We've entitled the show "In Your Dreams". Check out the site -- DREAMS A collection of one-acts that will be blended together with original material. It will be a great night of theatre!
Need to do some work on the Theatre Awards. Need to plan another meeting soon, and work on details about the show itself. Lots of subcommittee work to finish. And I'd like to get more updates on the web site.
God, I've seen a lot of shows thus far, this year!
Personal News:
I had an MRI done this morning. Very strange. Spoke with a Neurologist a few days ago. She's outlined a lot of things for me to try to combat this sleep problem I'm having. She made some good suggestions, I'm just trying to put some of them into action. My labs turned out to be good. My cholesterol tests were ok. Total cholesterol was 195. HDL is 37, LDL is 140. Triglycerides is 91. The LDL is a bit high...I think I need to work on my diet.
Got a new cell phone!
