Catching Up
So it's been a long time since my last post and quite a bit has gone on since that I've wanted to blog about! But for some reason I never fleshed out my urges into actions and my blog has thus fallen into disrepair and become outdated. But no need to worry, as I know you all are, because this post shall clarify everything and get you up to speed on the life of Chase.
So the summer is winding down and I feel a sense of unaccomplishment yet achievement with what I've done. This summer I've worked with Roundhouse Theatre, acted in a new play at the Fringe festival, and am now doing background work for "Step Up 2 the Streets." I've traveled to NYC twice, saw some great theatre, and got to see some good friends. But is that enough? What have I done with all of my other time besides sit around and watch daytime t.v. I guess I've been preparing for Urinetown a little, but other than that, not much. So I've accomplished one of my goals: do a show (any show) in D.C. But I've been very lazy otherwise. This needs to stop. Maybe school will knock me out of this weird cycle I've slumped into. who knows?
Speaking of the Fringe... our shows went well for what we had. The audiences seemed pleased enough. It was overall adequate for the Fringe, which I don't know if that's something to be proud of or not. It's another addition to the resume at least. Besides acting I was privelleged to see two really great shows: Cautionary Tales for Adults and Hamlet? That Is The Question. Both were a lot of fun. I knew people in both, so that's why I went, but it turned out to be a truly great experience both times. Great casts, great scripts, and great productions. Why couldn't I have been involved in something more like these two? Maybe I will be in the future. Who knows? The future is a murky water. I'm not even sure what I want out of my career anymore. Satisfaction and happiness of course. But what else?
This weekend I'm going to Abingdon for a week. Visit my family and see some more friends. The Virginia Highlands Festival is going on. It will be nice to go to that for a day or so. When I get back to D.C. I will be doing background work for "Step Up 2" and preparing for my return to school. I can't wait.
