Day 3- well only half way through Day 3- of Hairspray rehearsals. And it's already incredible.
I will talk about it again again- I LOVE THEATRE and the world and people that come along with it. We have a cast of 28- and by the end of the first day it was so obvious that it was going to be a fun process. Everyone joking and poking fun and just having a great time. The girl playing Tracy that I'm understudying for is WOW. Talk about belting your face off! So great- AND not only that- but she was nice enough to just GIVE me a show. Which I still can't believe---
SO- I get to actually BE Tracy in ONE show- for CDA SUmmer Theatre- on AUGUST 12! People... this is a big deal for me haha. And I know it's expensive- but if you can- please come :)
I'm just having the greatest time.
A) I'm out of my house
B) I'm not babysitting (haha
)C) And most importantly- Understudying is a completely new experience. Kind of a lot of down time so far... but being able to watch all the aspects of the rehearsal and help out where I can... it's so new and I kind of love it.
It still hasn't sunk in that I'm going to be going on as Tracy. Like- right now my mind is still saying "understudy". I don't think it will hit me until the day before, probably. When I'm thinking, "um holy shit... I have to do all this... not just block it in the background..."
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHvo eghr;rhgseg;ih;oeijg;ortigho;irhfadjkfngrighwoifghenoeirghoifhgo;irhg;osig
That's the only way to REALLY describe it.
That's all really that my blog is about for now. I am falling in love with every single person in this cast.
There's even an old friend/choreographer in the cast that I had NO idea we were like... the same person. We have the same goofy sense of humor and I have REALLY enjoyed finally getting to know her better and being a spaz with her :)
And all of the out of town people are great. Like I said- falling in love with EVERYONE.
Did I mention that I get to spend every single day surrounded by THE most talented people I have ever met? Literally.
Can't really complain about anything in my life right now. I really hope everyone else is having a great summer... this has been- by far- the greatest summer of my short life.
