WE COULD HAVE HAD IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL

Last night I saw Sunset Road by Miria George with the And What Remains cast and director. It was really good! Despite my dozing off early on; apparently I needed my nap. What is even happening to me. Everyone was fantastic and the physically stylized moments were gorgeous-looking. And after one of our Summerfolk directors (she's mentoring our AWR director) came in, watched a scene, and told our director we shouldn't always get so shouty (we do kind of scream at each other a lot), it was really interesting seeing the power that people had in emotional scenes without getting shouty. Hearing some lines recycled from or very similar to And What Remains was kind of funny, though.

It was also an amusing bonding experience with the AWR cast. Our director mothered us a bit so we've started calling her Mum or Mama [her surname] for lulz, resulting in things like "Mum told you to be quiet!" We also learnt a bit about her family and tea (she's English). And apparently our first year girl is hilariously expressive watching things and ruined the big scene for one of the boys because her face is an open book and you could see her shock and "BUT WHAT?!". We can't take her anywhere. AWR rehearsals are so much fun, though; we spent ten minutes the other day trying to pick Adele songs for some of the characters, although one of the boys ended up with a Kanye song because he said Adele wasn't deep enough for his character.

Speaking of And What Remains, I really like the poster for the honors directing seasons!

You have no idea how confused I am. Hell, I am even slightly displeased as this means I'll get into 302 next tri and I'll once again have three classes, one of which is a production paper, and now all of them will be 300-level. (Then I kick myself for being lazy.) But hey, this means I can still get my ALIN minor.

shows: and what remains, school: tesol
