First time!

Hey whomever is out there!
I've gone modern! I used to write little diary entries once in a while when I went on trips and stuff like that, but only a few people got to read them, and I figure that if I don't indulge in Facebook or Twiter, I can allow myself a blog once in a while, mostly to recall important periods in my life!

Last year, I wrote a diary following my casting as a chorus girl in a production of The King and I...and here we are again in yet another tiring but lovely production, in the world of Lioinel Bart's Oliver!

I will be the first  to admit, I wasn't as thrilled by the musical than I was with the Rodgers' and Hammerstein masterpiece, but with more opportunities for me to get an actual character, I was excited to audition! I did my audition with ''I Have Confidence'' from The Sound of Music...things went well, and I got a phone call about a week later saying that I was cast as Charlotte Sowerberry with two of my castmates from last year as my parents! I was ecstatic! Sooo much better than a chorus girl! (Although I was still to participate in chorus songs and dances!)

And here we are, one day before opening night...how riveting, exciting and scary all at the same time! We have our last dress rehearsal tonight, and then it's off! I'm very excited since I've been sick since Monday and I'm finally feeling a bit better...

Armed with a dress that makes breathing nearly impossible, a fake cockney accent and a fun cast in tow, this show is bound to be an exausting but magnificent one!

Tata till later (which will probably be soon! ;))

Chorusgirl

PS: I also forgot to mention that my best friend from theatre originally wanted my role and I wanted hers, but I ended up playing Charlotte and she Bet! What an odd coincidence!
