Expect Updates soon.

Sorry I haven't updated in a while, we opened our show this week and I've been super busy. So stay tuned for things like,
More crazy hair,
Huge Rubberband,
and more funny stories.

My Hair

Yesterday I got fitted for a wig. I had to have my hair in pin curls to put the wig on. So when we took the wig off and the pin curls out my hair was all fluffy. So Leslie, the costume designer who was wigging me decided to do my hair all cute and funny. Then she said "hang on one second we're gonna put ribbons in your hair!" I thought it was fun, so instead of redoing it when I got home I actually left it that way when I went to work the show:)

Crazy

This week is crazy. After a long trip to the Shakspeare festival and a largely free weekend, we have to put our noses back to the grindstone. We have a show every night, plus change-overs. I was at the theatre until 1:30 last night changing the set. We're in rehearsal every morning, the shop every afternoon and the theatre every night. We've also had a number of really strange experiences such as watching Fred try to be hip, and painting huge swastika banners while listening to Neil Diamond. Oy vey!

Last night Brandt, his girlfriend Ashley, and his work friend Bryce came up to Logan to take me on a date. It was loads of fun. We ate at sizzler then went bowling then watched a movie a Jayna's house. It was so much fun. It was good to see Brandt and Ashley again and finally win at bowling for once ;). Sorry, I didn't take any pictures.

Thumbs Down.

This week I got to go to the Utah Shakespearean festival. It was great! We got to see all six shows, plus a special backstage tour and the New Excecutive Director invited us to his house. I don't have any pictures from that trip because I was too busy having fun to take any. So I got to see six wonderful plays and I couldn't wait to get back to Logan and see the Utah Festival Opera do Into The Woods. As pretty much all of you know this has been one of my favorite shows since I was about four, and I played one of the lead roles in my high schools production of it. Sadly, I was disappointed. The actors were all opera singers so they didn't feel the need to over enunciate. None of them were really in touch with the real emotion of the play, they were like card-board figures or cartoons. The relationships between the characters were badly underdeveloped, and worst of all, they had a light on backstage, and from where I was sitting you could see the tech people walking around backstage. I'm very rarely disappointed with a professional production because I'm fairly easily entertained, but seriously, acting-wise Renn Hatt and the Greenriver High ensemble did a better job. I will say this: The princes were very good, so was the narrator, Jack was alright and the steward was alright. No one else really believed what they were saying and red riding hood was probably in her mid to late fifties, dead ringer for a ten-year-old girl right? It rather reminded me of Joann Arnold as Peter Pan. I'm hoping to see 1776 and I'm hoping it will be better. But if you want to see Into the Woods I say wait until October and go see it at Hale.

Happy Birthday

Today is my sister Cammie's birthday! Happy Birthday Cammie! Cammie turns 28 today. It seems like just yesterday my mom was dragging me to Ferron to watch her boring "balley ball" games. Happy Birthday again!

Tough One

Okay, There have been no new posts for a while because this week has been a tough one. I thought they had turned off the wireless in my building because I couldn't find the signal anymore but really my wireless enabling switch wasn't turned on. I don't know how it got turned off, but it's on now and I'm back on line. Yay! So I hit some land marks this week. Here's a list of my new experiences.

• I saw a chahuahua with both front legs in a cast. The poor little guy jumped off the theatre roof. It's a miracle he didn't die.
• I discovered the only man in this world hairier than Brandt. His name is Richie and he's an actor at the lyric. He's a cool guy, swarthy, but really cool. (He likes arrested developement)
• I saw Corey Ewan shirtless (I refuse to elaborate.)
• I saw Corey Ewan in a dress. So did most of the geriatric crowd of Logan. I know some of you have mixed feelings about Doctor Ewan but I must say, the man can rock a dress.
• I sprayed vodka on a set of boobs (Corey's fake boobs for his dress). And don't worry the vodka was very diluted. Sometimes we spray it on the clothes to kill the germs after a show.
• I asked for a condum for the first time and it worked, no one got pregnant. Hee hee. We put condums on the mic pacs so they don't get damaged by the sweat. I had to go and get one for a girl's mic pac.

So all in all it's been crazy.
