Audition

Don't have time to write much. It's 3:15 am and I woke up two hours ago and couldn't get back to sleep.
Spent yesterday packing, cleaning, showing, and auditioning for Fractured Actors. That last was a great ego-booster. After I had read for the first character, the director asked me to read for three more. Asked if I'd accept more than one role. I found that this is a kind of round-house show, with short plays or skits interspersed with songs (not by me). They have a live band, too. Anyway, they kept me there for about an hour, talking and having me audition. I gave them my experience booklet, which they appreciated. When the stage manager escorted me out, she said, "You wowed them!" and, judging by the enthusiasm of the directors (there were two there) and other production people, she was right. They'll make their decisions next week.
I just took some thing out of my big suitcase--it was so damn heavy, I could barely lift it off the couch. Soon, I'll get dressed, pack up the laptop, then meet Suzanne outside at ten of four.
New Mexico, here I come!

I bet you did wow them with your audition. What a lift to once again be doing something you love and are so GOOD at. (Ignore that preposition ...I know better, but it sounds better to me.) Have a great time with the folks in NM.
