I have returned!

So last week was a little crazy and I really never got to post and I apologize for this. But no one is really reading this so it really doesn't matter.

On Tuesday, I had somethings said to me that I never expected to hear from a teacher. They include the words Slutty and Hoebag. Basically the story is about my costume. Our Town takes place late 1800s to early 1900s. So I have my costume which is supposed to be school marmy. I notice that I have a really high slit in my skirt. It goes to above my knee which is scandalous in that time. So we decided that I am the Slutty Professor. And I was talking to my director about this because we had extra time and I was bored. He said, "That's good. I think it is time for you to embrace your inner hoebag."

...

I know.

But for the rest of the week I was referred to as the Slutty Professor or SP or YOU SLUT! It was pretty fantastic.

Wednesday

The Holocaust museum was really awesome and powerful. If you ever get the chance, GO! It is a really great experience. We also went to the National Gallery of Art which I did not get to enjoy because we had to do a project.

We actually got back early so no one was there for rehearsal when I got there (Other than someone else on the field trip who did lights) Wednesday went well.

Thursday-Opening Night

It went well. I really don't know what else to say. I nailed my lines and everything else.

Friday

We had some tech problems but it went well otherwise. Afterwards, we went to Friday's (A restaurant) and had an awesome time there.

Saturday

Before the last performance of the year, we always do something called Senior Circle. We all gather around in a circle and the Seniors talk about what it has meant to them to be apart of the Lancer Theater Company. So of course there are tears and a whole mess of sadness. We ended up running over show time because some seniors who were not in the production came and would not shut up.

So we start but we start late. Then, because everyone is still so emotional people just keep messing up their lines. We got through it alright and my part went well but still.

Another tradition we have is that on the last night of a production people always slip the word "Muskrat" into the performance. It was hysterical because some of them were very obvious and other's were not. But there were eight "Muskrats" when really there should be about four.

Afterwards, we had our cast party. It was filled with food and Nerf gun fights. I am still sore from the Nerf Gun fight.

All in all, Our Town was a really great experience. I had a fantastic time and I will really miss rehearsal and the entire cast.

I have French work to do now so I must go.
