I Finally Saw Wicked!

I know I know...I am the last person on earth to see Wicked, but I have to admit it was worth the wait. You'd think that I would have seen it months ago, but no...last night was the first time and what a night it was!!!

My husband got the best seat, 10 rows back and I was in heaven. I could see every little detail and even some of the actors on stage left waiting to come on, which is always a treat in my book. Last night was Eden's last saturday performance so the house was packed and she was amazing!!!! I knew it was going to be great, but it was even greater live then I had imagined.

The show is now in my top 5 shows to see and I can't wait to go back. Any one want to see it again???

Director Today, Actor Tomorrow

Well, Cinderella just ended last weekend and even though I am glad that I have some free time now, I sure miss the excitement of the stage. It was a long 10 week process, but I have to say for my first adult show I think I did a pretty good job. I directed a youth production of "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown" a few years back, but working with an age appropriate cast it a little harder . I have to say that I learned a lot and I am ready to take on my next directing adventure soon, but not just yet.

I have decided to audition for a musical in November and get myself back in the spotlight. I haven't performed is a year and a half and I am itching to get back on the stage. I am auditioning for Martha in "The Secret Garden" (one of the leads) and I will keep you up to date on how it goes. I also want to audition for "Suessical, The Musical" at Performance Riverside next spring and hope to get my foot in the door, because they are one of the top theaters around.

So now I have a few months to train and get myself ready for my audition. Back to voice 101 and constant vocal exercises...I am excited!!!
