Ophelia Forever!!!
I'm back from my little excursion down to Baltimore for the performances of Ophelia Forever. Here are some pictures from the production:
Here's me singing while Jimmi (Hamlet) prepares to drop-kick me.
Erin as the Mad Mermaid, aka psychiatric patient.
Me with Elspeth the Faithful Seductress, aka the doll.
The three Ophelias in the final pose.
The three Ophelias (Me, Erin, Elspeth) with the composer of the opera, Amy Beth Kirsten, second from left.
Me and composer Amy Beth Kirsten after the last performance.
Time to apply to the Bang on a Can Festival and the Norfolk Festival, and time to find some more singing jobs! I don't like to waste a single minute. Oh, and yeah, there are auditions for Jerry Springer, the Opera taking place in Washington D.C. Very tempting, but also maybe a little far away. We'll see. The Metropolitan Opera is also holding auditions to be in their opera chorus in just a few weeks. I'm still debating over whether or not to go. If I go and have a crappy audition, they may never hear me again. So I have to either go in solid or not go in at all. The weird thing is that its being done "cattle call" style, which is just totally strange to me. I don't know. Anyone else going? Advice?
