How I did it: (Mostly copied and pasted from my entry from "Volunteer for London Fringe 2008" goal)I volunteered for the London Fringe Festival last year, after finding out about it from friends who volunteer at the same theatre I did in the summer. They were volunteering at Fringe as well and told me where to go to sign up. I checked out the website, and just went to the Fringe headquarters and asked if they needed any help! Read how I did it…
How I did it: I haven't lived with my parents for my entire life... I went away to university 4 hours away from my hometown and lived in Florida for a year, but every time I've come back and lived at home again. Finally, my mother told me (nicely) that I seemed to be miserable and needed to "spread my wings" (so to speak), and very kindly told me I'd need to move out by September 1st, 2009, because she was planning on putting our condo up for ren… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I'd wanted to adopt a cat for awhile. Many of my close friends and my boyfriend have cats and I wanted one too! My mother decided that she wanted to adopt a kitten (her partner has a cat that is definitely "his" cat, so she wanted one for herself). A work colleague let her know that a friend of his had kittens available, and my mom said she'd adopt one, and the colleague planned to adopt the sister. She s… Read how I did it…
I had an audition for “Strangers on a Train.” I thought the audition went well, but I’m still waiting to hear back from the director. My friend Andrew got cast and he heard back on Thursday… I’m thinking it’s not looking very good for me! :(
My mom helped me empty 3 more storage boxes. I’m so sick of looking at stuff. I wish I could be a monk or a nomad and just rid myself of everything!
So I forgot to update this, but I actually have a bigger part in the play now! One of the other actresses asked me to switch and the director said yes. Now I’m playing “Edna Summey” which is a significantly bigger role! I get a fight scene, a fainting scene, and I get “saved” in a revival! Opening night is tomorrow!!!
