wowza, what a week!

Today are the performances of Modern Jo. Last night was our dress rehearsal. Laura and I perform in a hockey arena, and it was really interesting to do the show with so many people around. My adrenaline was pumping like mad. I was so nervous to do it last night, but as soon as it got going it felt amazing. I'm looking forward to performing it four times today. If the Halifax forum is anything like the Glencoe hockey arena, today - a Sunday - is sure to be packed...

And ARDEN opens this week! It's been a blast and it will be great to share the show with an audience. It's also been funny being back in the Keith's Brewery, my old stomping grounds. The show is an awesome mix of thriller and comedy... and what a cast, my god. 

And I have a seminar on Friday! hahaha English what? Trying to be a student and a theatre practitioner has been an exciting and sometimes overwhelming ride. Next term will only be busier. Let's try to make it through this week first, shall we?

Antony & Cleopatra has opened! Sadly we got rained out last night. I was completely devastated, actually, but I can't imagine how Genevieve and Christian must have felt - we get so few shots at A&CSleeping Beauty was rained out for this afternoon, but fingers crossed that we'll be back on the berm for A&C tonight. Actually, the weather has really not been on our side this summer - there was practically a whole week rained out in the middle of July. We've only had one week of 8 shows - every other week, at least one show has been cancelled.
