Act in a play (read all 2 entries…)
Suddenly, a hush came over the crowd. 6 days ago

So the first month (or so) of rehearsals have gone pretty well, and I’ve been enjoying myself immensely. The cast (well, most of the cast) are great and I really enjoy working with them, and it’s fun working with my pal the Ninja and making the part our own.

Today, though, I got a bit of news. The guy who is playing the male lead has thrown out his back and had been suffering with The Flu (no, not H1N1, just regular), and had been having a hard time at rehearsals. Today the director pulled him and me aside, and she said that she wanted me to be the understudy for him. Which is, let me say right off the bat, AWESOMETACULAR. Because that was the part I auditioned for in the first place, so yeah, I was thrilled. This is just a lot of stuff for me to process, and it’s going to be a lot of work. And really, learning the part in 1 month, I’m pretty sure I can do that. I just hope I can show off my hard work with at least one performance. Because that would be awesome for me. I don’t wish the guy ill, you understand. I just want to do it once. That’d be nice for me.

So yeah: big change coming for me. Lots of work for me to do. I’m really excited!
