Winnie the Pooh opens on Wednesday!! I must say I'm very excited.  We've been running through the show, and I think we are ready for an audience. We are all showing signs of wear...but, we'll be ready.

But today is my day off. And I am loving it...even if it is only 10:30. ha.

I am in need of rest that doing nothing today sounds really great. I think I'm doing a good job so far. : )

Happy Fall everyone!!

This is my favorite time of the year, and I am soo glad that it's finally starting to feel like fall.

Winnie the Pooh rehearsals have been going amazingly well. We start techs next week which is crazy!! I cannot wait to open this show...the kids will love it.

This weekend is going to be fun too. I start classes this Saturday, and then I'm going to hang out with the Winnie the Pooh cast at a cabin on Lake Martin. Totes awes. haha.

Bring on this week!

I'm thinking this is a good time to update. 

Sunday:

Winnie the Pooh rehearsals started and right from the get go things were absolutely wonderful. It is so wonderful to work with such a great cast...blocking the show in two days is not bad at all. Plus, everyone is so funny! Having done this show once before, I was very excited to see everyone else's take on the show. Everything feels so fresh and new! I'm loving every minute of it, even though by 8PM, I am DEAD TIRED.

I received my Father of the Bride script today! I am so glad because I have been wanting to read this play since Ron told me I was in it. Plus, my character, Red, seems pretty cool.

In other theatre related news, Pam Ware asked me to adjudicate for the ThesCon Acting IEs!! Hell yes! I hope that means more money. Workshop + IEs....I sure hope so!!


Now, the weather is starting to cool down....and Fall is hopefully approaching soon. Things are going well. It's nice, isn't it?

Blarg! September already. Exciting, exciting.

I am attempting to get myself on a different sleep pattern - going to bed early and waking up early. I'm trying to prepare myself for the coming weeks, and the two morning performances a day for Winnie the Pooh. Yet, it is not working. At all. My body likes that I go to bed around 3AM and wake up at 10/11AM. Boo.

Last week, I discovered the amazing world of BBC America. Ahhh, British television - Doctor Who, Top Gear, Ab Fab, Coupling. Lovely. The funny thing is - I've had that channel for over a year!! And I am just now watching it. 

I had a photo shoot for Winnie the Pooh today with Adam, Ben, and Kern. Funny stuff. We looked pretty funny in our full body costumes. I can tell that I am going to be laughing a whole lot during rehearsals. It's going to be great.
