my play that i directed went really good! i was really proud of my two actors! the audience was laughing! and i feel like it went good. there are parts that i wish were played up but i was very pleased. i stayed up till 5am finishing my directing book. i am so proud and happy that i got it done! i feel so accomplished!.
Reception was nice! and very fun with Megan there.
the speech went better then i thought. that was good.
all the groomsmen was very nice. they gave the bridesmaids their jackets when it was really cold outside.
on to NaNoWriMo! (National Novel Writing Month 30 days and nights of literary abandon!)
so im writing a 50,000 word novel in November. so thats gonig to be a reason why im not gong to up date ask me for details when you talk to me. I'll be glad to talk about it! but sleepie time now!
ok so this weekend i went to minneapolis and saw four plays. wow. all of them were so good!
first-
Radio Golf
was so interesting, it definably got you thinking.
it was about a black charactor running for mayor, and his wife and friend were helping him along with a project of renovating a ghetto part of town into shops and parking lots. but its halted for a bit when an old man said that he didnt get any notice that his house was sold, and that he had to pay taxes since someone always paid them when his mother was alive. the politician finds out they bought the house before it went on sale on the market so it was illegal. after he finds that out he finds out that his dad was the one who was paying their taxes. and upon finding that out he finds that they are related! so he loses his election, his friend and wife, and the play ends with him going to help the old man with his house. all in all the least interesting play that we saw but it was so interesting! Andy was finding so many points that was like "its a wonderful life"
on to the next one!
Bert & Ernie, Goodnight!
what can i say about this? AWESOME!
i cant really explain, but watch these videos and you dont get the feel but its enough i think
both of the actors did a wonderful job of pysical work, using their bodies like they were muppets, the flailing around and stuff =]
if you ever get a chance to see it, take all your family and go! i loved it and i think youd have to be a rock to not enjoy it.
then we saw
The House Can't Stand
which was a one man show. well a one woman show. it was two hours long and the energy that he had playing this character was amazing! to clarify.
Steve Epp is really famous and with Dominique Serrand directing him on what he had written, was amazing.
here i'll just tell you what the thing said,
"The Southern Theater presents the world premiere of a new solo performance and the debut of a new Twin Cities theater company. This compelling story of a lonely mother in search of a future was created by former artistic directors of Theatre de la Jeune Lune, Steve Epp and Dominique Serrand, and by the team that brought you such acclaimed productions as The Miser, Carmen, Fishtank, Don Juan Giovanni, The Deception and Maria de Buenos Aires." -- http://www.southerntheater.org/2009_10-22_epp_and_serrand.htm
just wow. wowsie. overwhelming. Jeune Lune had to disperse because of money trouble i think so i feel really privileged to have seen such a great play. or monologue rather.
the last play was
Ruined
wow. what an impacting play. it was set in Africa during some of the rebel wars, and focused on more of what happened to the women and how they get through it. just wow. it was amazing.
next time i will tell of jens wedding. becuz i can procrastinate like that =)]
my skull tray is wearing my sunglasses, and it makes me laugh.
auditions for directing one shows is coming up.
am i kind of nervous? yes, a bit, but more excited then nervous i think.
im trying to buy tickets to the flying karamozov brothers but they only take credit cards so i cant use my debit and i cant use my credit card! i have money at this moment, but not in my credit card.

Dear World,
I hate myself. I hate myself most of the time now. I hate my body, I hate my
brain, I hate my voice, I hate my personality. I hate myself.
It's ...
1st one done!
