Sometimes an actor faces a challenge where they question themselves why are they doing this? Well that is somewhat is happening in Hero's Journey! I don't mean this in the "I don't want to do this". I mean it in, "OMG This is so much work and I am facing new challenges."
I remember ( like it was that long ago) when I first headed to Tecumseh! for the summer. I remember driving to the company parking lot in the rain dark sky. Sitting in my car for a few minutes and asking: What did I just get myself into? However it was such an amazing experience!
Now looking at this show, I did not know what I was getting into. When I got that script I was shocked to find out that I would be playing 5 roles and the show was pretty much just me with the help of a storyteller.
After two week of rehearsals we open on Saturday! I am kinda of nervous, but super excited!
What has been so amazing working on this show is trying to find 5 different characters that are just super fun and lively. It has been a challenge. Trying to find that perfect "hipster", to the perfect "old man", to the "ORGRE DRAGON KING", and the strong but winy Bridge master! Whew that was a lot!
Now the count down begins, 5 days till show time!:) In the mean time why not check out Monkey Tail Theatre! Just click that highlighted link or here.
Love you all, I guess I will get back to homework!:)
