As I wrote "Day 6" I found myself so shocked about how quickly Thanksgiving was coming. 18 more days! The excitement is building :)
Today I am thankful for theatre. It is a huge blessing to be able to spend so much time with friends while preparing a show that will bring joy to so many people. Theatre is an outlet to express the personality of someone else, build character, find new friends and go deeper with the old.
While I love being onstage, I find the greatest excitement in working behind the scenes. I have been a part of so many shows in which I performed and I love it! Stage managing and being a part of the crew though is so much more fulfilling for me.
This week at school we had auditions for Hello, Dolly! I am stage manager so I get to help judge the auditioners and be a part of the decision making for the casting (of course Mrs. Anicia always has the final say :)) Thursday we have callbacks and the following week rehearsals will commence. I performed in Pride and Prejudice in April but that is the last show I have been a part of. It has been even longer since I stage managed. I am looking forward to this season of theatre and am so grateful I have this opportunity!
Come see the show when it is performed in February!
