I liked that we were getting things started with blocking tonight. Unfortunately, it seemed I was the only one in the scene. My Cratchit husband is far too busy goofing off, making jokes, and then not doing his lines. My 'kids' are not very experienced and though the director basically said, Go, my kids didn't. They stood there until I ushered them around. I guess I really am their mother.
I got another part--a Cockney one, for the several nights that one of the actresses can't be there. Yeah for me, but crap. We should have a full cast for each performance.
Mont and the girl who won't be there seem to be flirting. Ugh.
I like the project, though in this show, around Mont, I--I, the funny witty person, have become the prim nerd that says things that are completely lame. It is the only way I seem to be able to keep myself from telling him to shut his stupid mouth and stop acting like an idiot. Well, actually start acting and stop being an idiot.
The Spanish Fork Community Theater meeting was really interesting. I so don't feel like I fit in, but seem to actually have some kind of acceptance. Good!
Two things I found interesting:
1. Adam said Eliza Doolittle does not have to be Audrey Hepburn's twin (meaning she doesn't have to be thin) and can be older. Older? Hmm. I'm older. And not thin.
2. It's between a ball and a garden party for fundraising. Garden party sounds much easier. Have some entertainment, throw the kids some crumpets and send them home.
Keep Playing!
