I see what i want to see.. i know what i want to know.. i don't need you to tell me its true...
wow... what a week.. or week and a couple days--
i have so much to update on!
First off-- i was cast in Toby's Kiss me Kate which opens beginning of September and closes Nov. 8th. I am so excited! It is my first professional job.. well the MOST professional job i have had to date and I think it will be so good for me. I am a little worried about doing SO many shows a week especially during the year with SO many credits this coming semester. But i can do it. I really feel like i can. Tonight is our first rehearsal and I am missing Millie rehearsal so i can go to it. It is the only one i am gonna be able to come to until millie opens.. which i hope they are ok with it. Hal ( the director of millie) didn't seem to thrilled that i was missing rehearsal tonight.. i mean he was like basically "do what you have to do" but i was like "i won't be missing any more rehearsals for kiss me kate ones " and he was like "oh.. good" and i was like ?
That brings me to my next topic-- SDT and Millie and Yankees. I will talk about Millie first-- so i'm not sure how i feel about the show. I mean it is going well. Maggie is doing a great job and has improved immensely even since i started going to rehearsals. Really ALL of the CUA kids are doing a great job! I guess i am just a little disappointed bc i thought i was in the show more maybe? or maybe its just bc i don't really feel like i know what i am doing.. and EVERYONE else of course does bc they have been to rehearsals..but i have been missing them due to Damn Yankees. The show itself is PRECIOUS.. i think it just REALLY kills me that i could be playing MANY of the parts in the show.. and instead i am chorus girl # 8.. which is fine.. but it is just frustrating to watch people do badly what you could being doing better.. now.. i'm not saying GREAT.. but i could probably do some of it better.. and not everyone in the ensemble is bad.. i'm not saying that either. i don't know .... i'm just not sold on the cast i guess is the main problem.
And this is hard bc i LOVE the Damn Yankees cast. It is mostly MC people who i have become REALLY good friends w/. I am gonna miss them terribly when the show is over.. and I really hope that I see more of them.. like i can go see Urinetown and they can come see Kiss me Kate.. and MY RECITAL!
which leads me to my next topic--
it seems CRAZY that i am going to be doing a recital in a few months. I REALLY am on a crazy search for material so .. if anyone has good plays.. songs.. ANYTHING you think i would like.. post a comment and KEEP ME POSTED! haha I had a lesson w/ Tom last thurs and it went REALLY well. I think i have my opening and closing.. a section i was SURE i was going to have in my junior recital might be moved to my senior.. just bc there is a song that i HAVE to sing in order to make it all work.. and i'm not sure i'm ready yet.
Finally-- the boy situation.. well it gets more and more interesting.... i don't really want to chat too much about it right now.. but yeah .. haha that was vague
I REALLY hope that Mike can come back to the show this weekend.. but i don't know.. i am definitely praying for him. He got Gull bladder surgery on Friday and they ended up having to really open him up instead of doing it the way the normally do. I REALLY wanted to go visit him @ the hospital today.. but i don't really want to go by myself bc i mean mike and i are friends.. and i feel like becoming good friends.. but not good enough to like.. show up @ the hospital by myself...
hopefully i'll be able to go soon .. the show and the environment of Damn Yankees hasn't been the same w/o him around.
ok well i should shower and work on my recital some more.. before i have to BRAVE THE STORM outside ( it is like flooding all around DC/ MD/ VA area.. bc of all the rain.. and I HAVE TO DRIVE IN IT! .. ug)
well Much <3 I'll update more frequently ...
hopefully
