Real Post-ery

Okay, a for reals post.

Into the Woods went up last weekend and went really well.  At least the night I saw it I liked it very muchly.  

Our show is starting to be visually beautiful.  We've got a costume call tomorrow, because it is desperately needed (according to Susan).  I will most likely be sewing my curtains again.  We put up the ones I made that go next to the window and it looks sweet.  I'm also making one to completely frame the stage.  Yesterday I pinned the equivalent of 109 yards.  Today I started sewing it.  It just takes so long! haha.

On the theatre topic, statewides went interestingly last weekend.  They were exhausting and overall, I thought I did fairly well.  Four of five tech people are interested (yay!).  The fifth, uninterested one wants professionals who have been in the field for ten years.  Which makes me wonder what he was doing at a college audition call. Oh well.  APT audition was fun.  She actually wanted to work one of my monologues, which was kinda cool.  Then she told me she really wanted to read the play it was from (Oh Dad, Poor Dad, Mama Hung You in the Closet and Now I'm Feelin' So Sad), which is a really trippy show but I like one of the characters, so it worked.  The singing audition was the worst audition I've given in my life and I got a callback for it.  Crazy how that works out.  It's with Prairie Fire Children's Theatre.  Not something I want to do for years and years, but it would be fun for a while.

In other news, Ripon is cold, but nice.  We're currently at 17 degrees, but the afternoons are fairly nice.  Sure we're all wearing coats still, but we've had far worse winters.

Colette came to visit yesterday.  I don't know why exactly, but it was wonderful to see her again.  After rehearsal and a paper writing, I met her at Tylor at Millers for a bit.  She seems to be doing well in Chicago and is her usual happy self.

Though she was disappointed.  I'm hosting a delightful Bible Study tonight.  Unfortunately her train ticket was for this afternoon, so she won't be getting spiritual with the rest of us.

Anywho, I should finish straightening up before people come over.

Love you!
