Last night we had auditions for the children's play...and I get to play Missy!! I'm so friggin' excited.
It's a funny little retelling of the Three Little Pigs, and Missy is the sticks pig with a personality reminiscent of Elle Woods in Legally Blonde. Although when I was reading for her, some of Portia from the Mighty B! crept in...but I played it differently than everyone else, and maybe that's what got me the part.
I really don't care about analyzing it. I'm so so happy to be in a show!!
We get to perform at several daycares and schools during the month of April, and then...in December we're adding a second act to the show, where the Big Bad Wolf tells his side of the story. And at that point, we're going to be a mainstage show! We get to perform in Collins, and kids will come in to see us. I'm seriously thrilled about that. I'm freaking guaranteed to be in a show next semester, and that makes me feel a lot better.
This has been a really, really good week.
I went out for sushi, ice cream, and book-browsing last Friday with Daniella and Shannon.
I went on my birthday date (lunch and seeing Coraline in 3D) with P on Saturday.
I hit up Flattestan for a big birthday dinner and awesome Rock Band session on Saturday night.
I got accepted to the Disney Alumni Program!!
I got A's on my Gilbert and Sullivan and Shakespeare projects for Voice and Diction, and I think I did well on my storytelling project.
I impressed one of the most intimidating members of the theater department with my work ethic, introspection, and acting ability.
I've worked out for 30-60 minutes every day this week.
I nailed my audition for the children's show and got a good part.
And I'm going out to dinner with friends tonight.
I'm so thankful for a good life and a good week. Now, if only every week could be like this...
find the joy
