Especially the loving program we have.
So it’s my senior year and I’m finally being recognized to do some work… At the worst time ever. I just got a bunch of English homework dumped on me and I’m trying to not drown in Chemistry. Eh shrug.
For our musical auditions I will be in charge of one group and my co-director for the senior production will be running another group. Basically to keep everyone in control and be all nice and sweet to the underclassmen who are nervous about auditioning.
Also, tomorrow I have to design a set so that my tech manager will build it for me (because he loves when I ask him to do stuff last minute). By the way if anyone knows how to use this SketchUp thing from google: I could use some help.
Oh and I just got the CD for the whole musical for How to Succeed and it’s like 32 songs! Wow… way to fill my ipod? haha But isn’t that awesome? And I loved the musical before we decided to do it so really this is like getting the CD for free!
Please don’t forget, if you’re in a production of any sort submit it right here! i’m really looking forward to hearing about other experiences from other people.
Today we received our female monologues for How to Succeed in Business and ummm… I’d say they’re interesting none the less. It is a story about a woman who is explaining to a friend/or daughter that her ferret ran away and that although it appears that she killed the ferret- she didn’t. I’m not sure if she’s being serious or if she really did murder the ferret but either way… yeah…
So we’re singing “Happy to Keep His Dinner Warm” and I must ask for advice here. I’ve never been particularly good at body language in slow songs so I ask: Is there any particular way the body language should be for that song?
Hello musical theatre kids, I am back to run this gorgeous and amazing blog! Here’s a brief story about where I went and where I’m going:
Well here in my school district we only do musicals in the spring, so since I didn’t get very much activity after i was done, I sort of just let this go until I came back and now here I am. Right now, I am preparing for my school auditions for How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying! Now I’ve been crazy about this musical since the revival showed up at the Tony awards last year so I’m tres pumped!
Also what’s happening, I’m a senior in my school right now and things are going by so quickly. My last musical is almost upon me AND I just wrote a musical… yeah I did. I wrote a musical- which I shall update you about as well: the closer and closer we get. And being a senior also means, I’m going to the big place: college. I have 2 college auditions upcoming. One is a musical theatre audition and one is a theatre audition. I’ll tell you more about that when the time comes about but let’s say I’m very nervous about both!
Okay well let’s say I’m super excited to be back and blogging theatre and musical stories. PLEASE submit any stories of your own! Goodness knows with two overlapping shows I will have tons of things to tell my lovely theatre community out there.
p.s. if anyone would like to join me in the endeavor: come alone and let’s do it together!
