heat lightning!

day 11.
another long day. morning was better today though. henrik and i got that huge scene blocked finally. we actually have everything in the show (re)blocked, so we're going to be doing full show runs tomorrow and thursday before the dress (before people) on thursday night.
i think i have made a character decision that makes sense for me, but no one else can see it (it's all weird and internal) so that could be why i am reacting to changes with a little bit of inner... akhfkjh.

silvia is playing this game. she understands the circumstances, but (as papa orgon said in the 2nd scene) if she doesn't like her fiancé, he'll leave- so the stakes are high, the consequences are there, but it's more of a game that silvia thinks she has nothing to lose from. the game is to tease the valet into telling her things about her fiancé, but as she gets to know the valet more, she starts falling for him and hating her fiancé more and more. finally she finds out that the valet she has fallen for is really her fiancé in disguise, just as she is. she hides her identity from him, and when she goes to tell him something, he leaves her. she then realizes that she pushed the envelope too far, she played the game too long and she messed things up. he comes back, to help her, and she is so hurt that she thought all was lost, so she says (as an aside) "our reconciliation has to cost him something." as in.... that little spot just cost me something, i've learned my lesson, but i get the last say because i'm a hurt girl who is just beginning to learn/grow up kind of way, if that makes sense. then, after she plays hard to get, she reveals herself and then ta-da, the end, happy love ending.

it all makes sense in my head. i wish i could just... have the opportunity to express myself. i want to make silvia 3d, not just an ok 2d-ish version of marivaux's character.

lunch was nice, but really expensive. dear co op- you're wonderful, i love you a whole lot, but you make my wallet cry...

this afternoon/night was best though. perfect, just spending time with scott. playing tiptoe through the tulips and singing silly things. :)

i was asked to bring the uke to rehearsal, i wonder if they actually do want me to play it. they have been mentioning it for some time...
