So, yesterday it was confirmed that John will no longer be working with us as he was offered a job that involves two weeks of training at the end of August. To say the least I had a rough day. Thankfully though it was the rehearsal that Jamie was going to observe, so we were able to bounce ideas off of him and re-work the show. Sad to say I will no longer be incorporating my abstract character that would weave the show together. On the other hand I will be taking on John’s role in a way that allows me to move to one of the monologues. My cast is an amazing support system and we all worked together to find the best way to move forward. Jamie was able to get us re-motivated in that he gave us tons of stuff to work with…ideas for the visual aspect and transitions etc. So, I can’t say that I’m any less stress than I was before John left, but at least I sort of know where I’m going. I have a lot of work to do.
On another note…Lisa, one of my cast members has decided to apply to the Theatre Program at RMC! I’m thrilled for her as I know that this will be something that will benefit her. I’ve seen her work and I know she would make a good fit. She is just waiting for acceptance and then the only other hurdle is financing. She’s 27, already has a bachelors degree so this is a huge step. WAY TO GO LISA! I’ll be there helping her along in her journey.
Only 6 days until my road trip with Kristen. I’m excited but can’t help of thinking that I’m taking 10 days away from my show right before it goes up. If necessary I will ask her to help me once and a while with my own monologues…the rest is up to the cast. We are going to be in Georgia, Alabama, Ohio, Illinois, Michigan and Ontario so it will be a trip to remember that’s for sure.
Well…wish me luck!
