After that one show I did, one of the cast members told me I should try out for a Community Theatre show that he’s assistant directing; I approached that suggestion with some hesitation, but because I enjoyed the Urinetown experience so much, I resolved to definitely audition, no matter how I was feeling about it at the time.
Auditions came and went, and I ended up scoring the part of Action in WCT’s West Side Story. It sounds like it’s a little meatier than my last role, which I’m pretty stoked about. I’m also happy because although this isn’t one of those shows that I just “had to be in” (Urinetown was), it gets my foot in the door for when a show like that comes along, and it’s a lot of fun to boot.
It will also help me occupy my time, as Abe is currently 9 hours and 6 time zones away, leading a group of middle schoolers through the British Isles for the next 2 weeks. So between this, watching movies, biking, a video game here and there, and watching the cats fight, time should pass pretty quickly, I guess.
Be the first to say something. Anything.
