the end is near

well, opening night looms. my comfort is that i will only have to run the show 11 more times (maximum), counting tonight's dress rehearsal. i have at times the feeling of being in some kind of skit... perhaps it's the track lighting which illuminates the boards we tread, i mean the small platform in the middle of the pub. perhaps i'm insecure about performing on a strangely modified thrust using blocking that was done for a proscenium stage. perhaps it's the fact that i realize that if reviewers do come, it will be very difficult to leave a mention of me out of the review, seeing as how there are only 4 people in the show.

fortunately i have been brushing up with some acting lessons.

in answer to Dr. Matt's question:

i have never been to chicago, but what do vancouver's kits and toronto's annex have in common? ummm they're both trendy, overpriced enclaves of artistic types? who favour funky planters and porch lights?

an interesting key to who you truly are...

I'll give you trendy and overpriced, although the latter hasn't been much of a concern since generally I'm staying with friends or at other cheap accommodations. Haven't noticed the planters; I was thinking more in terms of the style of architecture, and the mixed use of space (with apartments and Victorian houses right off of major commerical streets, and neighbourhood coffeeshops and bars).

bah. you should live in e-town, where everything is boxy and flat and industrial looking.
i tell you, there's nothing like watching the sun set behind rows upon rows of big box stores.
plus, it snows every month of the year.
