quite sad to leave dear Hippo behind. I'm not going to have much time to grieve because I've got to get straight back into school work. Perhaps that's for the best. At least I still have my sweet white blazer.
Thanks everyone for your extremely kind words about my work!
sooooo doing a show with laryngitis is no fun. who knew?
the shittiest bit is that even though I barely speak during the day, I still haven't had time to recover. so instead of getting markedly better, I'm lingering in this "still pretty hoarse and cough-y" stage. Major improvement from Tuesday, though, when I couldn't speak and we had to cancel the preview. I did the dress rehearsal and our Tuesday night invited dress without speaking - Dan or Keelin read my lines. That was amazingly fun and forced me to be a better actor. Sweet exercise. We did something like that when I worked on The Seagull with Tanja Jacobs. I can't remember if we did the whole play like that - we might have. Or maybe we just did the scenes off book way before we were actually off book. In any case, I love doing runs like that - it's nice to have something to break up working on a character or play in a certain way.
now off to bed!!!! god, school + theatre is fun but also exhausting.
