Audition Report

[c9]

I am inaugurating what I hope will become a regular feature of this journal, and not just a one-time upbeat bit, and a single downtrodden bit, followed by silence. What is it? Something about me and theatre. I think that if I do get involved again, I'll probably have lots to say, and I'll drive my loving husband leapfish insane. Therefore, I better get it out of my system electronically first to make him love me more. :-)

KW Little Theatre is holding a one-act play weekend towards the end of January, and tonight was the last night of auditions. I went, and had a great time! First I had to fill out a form talking about things I've done, and my schedule. Then I got to act out a short monologue from Stage Manager's Nightmare (at least I think that was the title), playing it straight and playing it as a motivational speaker. I made them laugh a lot, which felt really nice.

Next I got to do some dialogue from a one-act by Chekov, in which I'm a guy who wants his money owed by this rich tart. We played it straight, then less angry, then totally overacted. Again, good reactions from the directors.

Sidenote: I feel like Wil Wheaton when I tell stories about auditions. That's interesting.

The casting should be done by Friday. Further bulletins as events warrant!

I was so thrilled after the audition. I felt far better than I had expected. Good for encouraging me to stay involved. :)

I've been thinking all night, and the obvious is true. I cannot love you any more than I already do, without some sort of love capacitator upgrade.

[c9.livejournal.com]

We better look into that upgrade then. I can't stand the idea that it's all downhill from here!

I try to state things in terms that I'm sure he'll understand.

I have such a smart husband. Even his ass is smart.

Good Luck, Cam! Seriously, when you do get your part, whatever it might be? Let me know... I'll find a way to come up and see it! :-)

[putaindemerde.livejournal.com]

Oh, you'd look positively adorable in an usher's suit... rawr ;-)

Oh please. Maybe I'm not butch enough for you, sistah, but I'm straighter than a good 75% of the queers I know.

You must be surrounded by the world's biggest queens if that's true!

There's no possible way I could choose which to use out of the dozens of possible responses to this.

What's with all the comments? Did you just find your LJ password again or something?

Re: oh, and...

[jpman.livejournal.com]

No, just time and inclination. I read LJ every day, just don't often have anything to say.
