Today's one of those days where I'm thinking about 1.9 billion things at once. Unfortunately, I'm sick and my head's all clogged up which doesn't help matters. Let's start with updates and then I'm sure I'll begin rambling.
1. Footloose is fabulous. I'm totally obsessed the production and cast. Who'da thunk? Yes, the book is terrible. It's not a strong plot. However, it's a thoroughly entertaining production and I'm pretty darn fond of my dumb-as-a-rock character. I'll post pictures up here eventually. The theatrical experiences I've had since being home (Damn Yankees, Annie Get Your Gun, Taming of the Shrew, and Footloose) as well as both successful and unsuccessful auditions have taught me more than I can explain. I've learned what my type is. How I'm likely to be cast. Where I lie comparably to other people talent wise in the Dallas community. Who to trust. Who plays games. Who's over it. Who the real performers are. Who the real friends are. I keep saying it, but I'm not ready to leave. at all. I feel like I'm just now entering a trajectory that could get me somewhere and I have to put it all on hiatus for an "education" (aka a huge sum of money for the spot on my resume that says "BA/BFA in _____ from _____." That's it. Blargh--oh the frustration! I had a nightmare last night that I went back to Rhodes to just finish out a music major and get it over with. I could do it still, I think. But I think I'd nearly go insane.
Aaactually, looks like I've got to go. more updates later, but for now
I love music.
I love love.
C'est tout!
