One to the Other

Sorry about not posting for a while, I've been so busy since returning from New York. The Weir ends its run tonight in the Lab Theatre at CSPAC. It's been a lot of fun and a very good experience for me personally. I'm sad to see this show end but am anticipating what comes next. The audiences have been very large for The Weir so far. I was told that Off-Center productions normally don't do that well. But on Friday night we were so full they had to turn about 20 people away because we were already over capacity. It's nice to see big crowds coming out for the show. I hope tonight lends a nice group of people coming in from the cold. The weather today sets the mood to tell this story even better.

So as soon as Weir ends I begin rehearsals for Stonewater Rapture! Stonewater Rapture is the next Off-Center, in which I will be playing the role of Whitney and we start rehearsals literally tomorrow. An adventure to be had, an interesting script which I plan to pour over when I get back to my apartment this evening. I'm excited about this next project. Off-Center's are a great way to be seen by faculty here at UMD and faculty cast the mainstage productions so that's exciting.

I'm seeing the mainstage production of Machinal next Saturday, Nov 4. I'm looking forward to that. The mainstage of Piano Lesson was very well done and very professional in presentation and I look forward to seeing what Machinal will be like. It's in the Kogod Theatre, the medium blackbox in CSPAC and I have yet to see a show in there. I'm very happy to be a part of this department and look forward to what possibilities lie ahead. Now off to call...
