A completely straight play, just for the experience of not having to sing or dance.
Directing more shows
This entry was not for any other reason than to remind myself that I have actually accomplished something in life or theater, and that I really need to get myself active in that again. I realize that there is soo much that I haven't done, and mostly because I haven't siezed opportunities when they were in front of me. I've become lazy, and allowed certain insecurities and laziness to rule me. I was given a gift and talent for a reason, and I'm not using it. So, I s'pose it's time to dust off the monologues, pull out the cuttings and organize my life so I can audition for shows that may come up with the right type of part for me. I think I actually miss being in a show. ::gasp::
