One ended, and the saga begins again!

I know it's been a while since I've written, but once the ride called "The Heiress" took off, there was very little time for me to blog (though I've been writing a new play!).

So, the run of "The Heiress" was a great one, and the cast became a real family. It's been a long time since I had experienced that feeling to its fullest like this, and it felt really really good to be able to feel it again.

At the end of the run, this past weekend, I actually cried seeing it go. I haven't cried over a show closing in a long time, and this closing really hurt deep.

But! Like every rain storm of a show closing, there's another show that's ready to be rehearsed and mounted-and this time is no exception!

I am currently in rehearsals for my FIRST MUSICAL!!! "Sweeney Todd"!!. New exeperience, new theatre, new people.

We started rehearsing actually the day I got the show, which was a little weird, but we have a LOT of work to get done!

Sondheim is hard, ya'll! Even though I've been singing his music since age 3. It looks very different when I need to read the music for it :-P.

I'm in the ensemble, and actually am really thrilled about it. We're right now working on the 3 big ensemble songs: "The Prologue", "God That's Good!", and "Pirelli's Miracle Elixir". And I gotta say, everything sounds wonderful.

I've also made a fan page for myself on facebook-so go find me, become a fan :). It'll have stuff about my upcoming shows and such, and other little good things.

Not much else is going on (the job hunt continues btw!). Just writing, rehearsing, babysitting and jobhunting.

I will keep everyone posted, thanks for being patient!

Til next time...
