AHHH! Long week.
First things first: Class. We continued to read Our Country’s Good, although we are still only on the first half of the play. There are a lot of very vibrant and interesting female characters in the show, it’s hard to decide who exactly I’d want to play. But if I had to choose, I’d want to try out Mary-she seems like she’d be fun to play.
Into the Woods auditions are tomorrow. I’m going for ensemble; I’m pretty sure I don’t have a chance in getting a lead. It’s very difficult music, and we have other kids at this school who would be better suited for the roles. Besides, if I did get a lead, there would be way too much rehearsul-something I don’t think I could handle in my junior year of full IB.
One acts are over. I really enjoyed them this year, more than I usually do. Thursday night’s performance was a little rusty, but last night’s went really well. I suppose it was the motivation of having a large audience, or just being closing night, but the energy was really high and we all did a great job. The cast party was almost as enjoyable as the performance. I wish I could have stayed longer, but I was naturally very sleepy.
A GRAND WEEK FOR THEATER PEOPLE. (at Cleveland).
