Well I guess you have either guessed I got a callback and was cast by now because I haven't posted anything and was just too busy to, or that I've been too depressed to admit I failed on the world wide web.
The truth is more like the second statement. I ask myself "Is it something I'm doing wrong?" according to my theatre teacher I'm "Just not right for the part" I've been at this school a year now and I haven't "been right for the part" too many times. That's okay. I love theatre too much to quit.
We are starting monologues in class. Last year, I memorized a monologue from the Taming if the Shrew by William Shakespeare. It's after Petruchio has tamed Kate and she's defending him "thy husband is thy lord, thy life thy keeper. Thy head, thy sovereign, one who cares for thee..."
Yeah. It's interesting. This year I chose a monologue called Family Secrects by someone I don't remember the name of. Basically it's about a girl who's trying to get over her anger for her mother. "My mother died when I was four. She went crazy." She goes on about geting her mothers ashes and sticking her hand in them and felling them like "gravel or peices of her bone."
Also interesting but a lot better than "thy husband is thy lord!"
