Jonestown

Long time no post! I participated in Play in a Day this weekend, and it was a trip.I was in a group of three actors, so there were fewer lines to learn. The play was about purgatory, and had some good writing. The direction, however, left a bit to be desired. The director really wanted something more abstract and Absurd (as opposed to just absurd).
On Saturday I was excited to have nine friends and coworkers in the audience. In a theater that only seats 50, that was pretty freaking awesome. Saturday’s performance was okay, but Sunday’s was much better. Which makes sense.
Now I am exhausted, but in that way that is invigorating, if that makes sense. I’d love to take a nap, but I also want to spend today working hard and doing well at work. I got to be creative over the weekend, and loved it, and now I can focus on being creative at the office in whatever ways possible.
Only 17 days until I leave for my trip – I’ll be sure to post updates when I’m there, so stay tuned!
