Ahhh, what a wonderful time of Augie's class schedule. We have spring break next week. Yes, that's right, for those of you who go to those "other" schools and have already had your spring break, you will be in class. What a pity. I am almost ready to die due to the happiness Spring break is going to bring me. I will be sleeping, playing Halo, reading, and working at the box office. I do have some small things to do, but I have an entire week to do them. I am going to enjoy peace and quiet as all my family members will be gone during the day. Ahhh. I love it.
However, before break, I have some classes that I need to go to. Acting 2 is the only one that I HAVE to go to. I will probably end up skipping Psych 115 and Bio 110 just because I already know what we will be doing. Also, I have some more rehearsals for Pirates of Penzance. I have been thinking about this whole stage management thing. I decided officially that I really really love it. It is a lot of fun because I get to see the entire show from concept to production. We are still in the blocking/choreographing/working stage, I am really super excited for when we finish with blocking. We will be done with blocking and everything by tomorrow. Tonight we have rehearsal at 7 and we are going to be learning the Act 2 finale. Apparently it is going to be huge. We will have 27 people on our small stage all at once. (Granted we have tons of levels, so it's not that bad.) So far, the set is doing what I like to call "kicking ass." It's so grandiose as we use all the levels of the theatre. The lighting designer wants to die because he has to use stage lighting to light the aisles and the back of the house as there is action that goes on there. It's turning out to be really good. Maybe I should take a technical emphasis to my theatre major and specialize in stage management and/or design (if I like design when I take it). I love acting and do well at it when there is a "crazy" enough role for me such as Mr. Kolenkhov, but I dont' know yet. I am really confused. We'll see how I sit at the end of the year.
I am still awaiting an email back from Blackhills Playhouse. Here's the plan: If I don't get an acting job at BHP, I will audition for Bare Bodkins to do Measure for Measure this summer and continue to work at the box office. If that doesn't work out, I will work at the Pavilion box office part time and work full time at a restaurant as a server. I think that would be a good thing for a theatre major to know how to do. BUT, I am still hoping on the Black Hills Playhouse thing. Anyway, I need to open the house and get stuff done before rehearsal. I hope to post again soon, but don't count on it.
