A Light at the End of the Tunnel

I better write a blog...a couple of friends have started to chide me about my poor attitude in the blog comments.

I haven't been writing as much this month because I'm consumed with the play, leaving little to no time for anything else.

You will be happy to hear that there is a very dim light at the end of the tunnel. Emphasize on dim.

We read (practiced) lines yesterday from 11 am to 6 pm. A couple of people stopped by to read along and check the lines through out the day. Mucho gracias for their help!

Progress was made...not perfection, oh no, but some progress. We can get through Act One now. I still have to call for a line about every 6 to 10 lines. And there are some lines that no matter what, I can't remember (I wonder what that is about?).

I have warned the cast that they will have to bridge these gaps to help me out.

It looks like the play may go on now. (I was the only one doubting this)

It is also safe to say that I won't be doing this again. Maybe a small part in another play but never again a major part.

Unless, of course, Hollywood discovers me.

I know. Won't happen. Not in this life time or the next one.

I will be happy to simply not embarrass myself.

Well, this is taking up precious memorizing and practice time.

You, dear reader, have become the ugly step child of my attention.
