Despite some hiccups (like using the word "bitch" instead of "witch) the invited dress rehearsal went down without any major problems and we got our second full run of the show in.  Considering that was our first time in the space, it's impressive.  I enjoy performing in parks, and I have to say, even though we don't have a backdrop, the natural ( Read more... )

Last night I had the full evening to myself for the first time in a long time.  It occurred to me to take the free time to call friends, catch up, maybe go out and play, but the quiet apartment and cathartic rain persuaded me to stay indoors and it's probably the best decision I've made all month ( Read more... )

So I told myself I would take a break from theatre come September.  I'd take some improv classes, but I wouldn't involve myself in a show because I find myself finally getting tired and that's definately an indication that I've been going too strong this past year and that my body just needs a rest.  After my show ended in August, I could relax ( Read more... )

I should be writing Fringe reviews but instead am using what little energy I have left to tell you all about my day.

So my phone went missing.  On Thursday night I went to a show and remember turning it off before going into the show and then that's about the last I saw of it.   Hmmm, I think, I bet it slipped out of my purse and is still in the van ( Read more... )

The less I say about G20 the better.  It makes me scared, it makes me angry, it makes me hesitant and a slew of other emotions.  I've heard of cops riling up the crowds on purpose and of protestors looking for any excuse for destruction but for now I'll leave it at it's a whole different world when you get a mob involved on either side and I don't ( Read more... )
