Hey all! I'm updating, partially because it's been awhile and partially because there's important work to be done. I've been spoiled in this program, so now having to write a 2-4 page paper seems like having to participate in an athletic event. That metaphor may not sound brilliant, but trust me, it works. They're both something that I'm perfectly capable of doing, but if given the choice would rather watch reruns of "The Office."
Performing the Neil Simon scenes went well. There are even a couple of pictures online, but I look a little bit ridiculous. I wanted to dress up, so I wore a red dress with black tights and my heeled black boots. It was a pretty cute little ensemble. The problem was that Gellman said that moving across the stage in my heels made me too high status, so he requested that for the next run, I remove the boots. The problem was that, to keep myself cozy and warm, under my boots, I wore pink, fluffy slipper socks, thinking that no one would ever see them. Gellman made a good point that the character was little off and was getting ready for bed anyway, but my fashion conscious facebook friends did not see his reasoning. I received a good ridicule for that one.
The main focus now is working on our final showcase. At the beginning of the year, if you'd have walked into our improv class, you might have thought you'd wandered into a party with a group of great friends. This week, you might think you're walking into a funeral where everyone in the room was the child, best friend, or widow of the deceased. Kinda morbid, but I'm kind of on a roll with the super awesome metaphors tonight. I'm not going to go into detail here. All I will say is that I trust Norm and I trust...I am trying to trust...I will forceably beat my ensemble into focusing on the work. When all is said and done, we will have an amazing show and I will have a dvd of it to subject you all to. Speaking of, tickets for my showcase are now available if you call the training center. The shows are May 12th and 13th at 7 o'clock. Come enjoy myself and my super sexy friends being really, really hilarious.
Alright, I have a movie treatment to write, sketches to look over, and a sink full of dishes, all of which are vying for my attention, so here is where I will bid you adieu for the evening. Have a lovely day!
Post Script. If anyone knows of any jobs available in Warsaw this summer, please let me know. I need rent money, and it's hard out here for a pimp.
Keep on truckin'!
You detest reruns of "The Office"? I'm very surprised! And are you sure that you're perfectly capable of participating in an athletic event? Maybe if the entire staff of a firehouse was standing by, ambulances at the ready...
