February 19, 2008

Basically, life is amazing.

1. Dangerous Liaison rehearsals are going splendidly.
2. FOUND filming is about to start up again.
3. Classes are not bad at all.

Dangerous Liaisons, or as the French would say – Les Liaisons Dangereuses, is this semester’s first main stage show. It’s a fantastic play set in France, right before the French Revolution, full of corruption, deception, and, of course, sex.

My fellow blogger, Mark, and I are both in the cast. Mark plays Azolan, footman to the lead male character Valmont; and I play Cecile de Volanges, a young, naïve, nitwit straight out of the convent.

Anywho, rehearsals have been a blast – except for the fact that Cecile is gone by the end of the first act, (you’ll have to come watch the play to see what I mean by “gone”) consequently, I’m not called to all the rehearsals. And that is difficult…see, acting is an addiction. Those who love it exhibit all the signs: theatre/film cravings, irrepressible character outbursts, inability to concentrate on non-acting related activities, even withdrawal. One week I was the only one not called to rehearsal for three days in a row, and…well, it was hard, but we made it through without any permanent damage…we think.

Episode 1 of FOUND premiered on Feb. 1st. They threw a huge red-carpet affair – It was quite the event. super good times...

Here's a picture of me with two of the writers of FOUND.

I counted the number of fans there…some of you were missing… but don’t worry, you can make up for it by coming to see Liaisons:

Feb. 29 8:00PM
Mar. 1 8:00PM
Mar. 2 2:30PM
Mar. 5-6 7:00PM
Mar. 7-8 8:00PM
Box Office: (210)-999-8515

no excuses.

but back to what I was saying, I counted the number of my fans in attendance and I am happy to report that you guys outnumbered all other followings present at the event.

ME: Thank you.
YOU: It was my pleasure.
ME: In that case, you’re welcome.

Now, the cast of FOUND is meeting –in an undisclosed location– this week –on an unrevealed day– to gear up for the top-secret second episode. This I look forward to.

Finally, classes are classes…better than high school, but not quite as amusing as elementary school.

that is all.
