So, the Director has landed on a couple of one-act plays for the Camden Civic Theatre's next production. One is a 15-minute Woody Allen piece, and one is a 30-minute play called "The Actor's Nightmare." I have the main part in the 2nd one. There's a ton of lines to memorize, and we really only get together for four rehearsals plus a dress rehearsal before we perform on May 24. Basically a ton of work outside of the official rehearsals to get ready.
Very excited about getting my chops back into the whole thing. We did a read-through last night and I was only into it for a couple minutes before I started getting very comfortable with the whole thing again. I'm not positive the choice of plays was ideal for our neighborhood-just seems that there's a lot of obscure theatrical and literary references that might be lost on a lot of the audience. But they should both also be pretty fast-paced and slapstick, so I think they'll go over well. Theater audiences love comedy. Especially people that don't go to a ton of plays.
Anyway, for those of my readers in the area (what, all one or two of you?), if you could set aside the evening of Tuesday the 24th, I'd love to see you there.
