Long Days Journey(s) Into Night(s)

So, the BIG news is that I had a phenomenal callback for Threepenny @ Shakes earlier today and I feel really good about it!  I love it when the director greets you with "I'm so glad you could come back and do this!" (like you're doing THEM a favor) and the casting director says "it would be a travesty if you weren't here".  I honestly feel that if I don't get cast it's all about type, not talent, and I LOVE that feeling! (I  love it more if I get cast, but it's always nice to feel confident about a callback no matter what the outcome!)

Also, yeah, so over six hours of theatre yesterday... And the two shows could NOT have been more different.  Mauritius was a modern, fast-talking, fast-paced show about the lengths people go to get what they want and OtB's Faith Triptych was a remounting of three seminal works by the local choreographer, Pat Graney, from 1991, 1995 & 2001.  All three examining large ideas (Faith, Sleep & Tattoo respectively) and all with female dancers with a strong emphasis on the female body. But yeah... it was a looooong day.

If I could do nothing tonight I would probably be fine, but I had the callback this morning and tonight are the TPS Gregory Awards (local theatre awards in Seattle and a brilliant time to get dressed up and mingle with other theatre-folk).  Plus TONS of my friends are nominated!  So there will be rushing home and changing into a fancy dress & heels & possibly my fur & grabbing a drink with the roomie (who, I kid you not, I have not seen for more than 10 minutes in over 2 weeks--much needed roomie date!) & cheering on my friends who are nom'd (GO CONTEMP CLASSICS)!  No rest for the wicked, right?
