I had a lovely past couple of days! Antigone opened on Thursday and it was very exciting. Even though I didn’t work much on the production I still enjoyed opening night. I think I was very excited for all of the people I knew in the show, and they all did great! It was so cool seeing people I had worked with in acting one take the stage and to see how much they had progressed.
I also saw Camelot on Sunday. It was very strange to be in Shea’s again. I hadn’t been their since I have become a theater major and it was a very differerent experience. I’ve seen so many productions in smaller theaters and it was weird to be in a crowd that big. The show was amazing though! Lou Diamond Philips was one of my first crushes and I was totally star struck when he stepped on stage. His voice wasn’t terribly strong, but he was such a charming King Arthur it didn’t matter.
Classes are bit crazy right now, seeing as how it’s getting towards the end of the semester. I have a paper due Tuesday that I completely forgot about. Luckily, it’s not too long. Lighting design has been my hardest class this semester simply because I have never thought in terms of lighting before. We still have two projects left and I’m totally nervous. But, I was offered the opportunity to design the lighting for one of the segments of the dance concert next semester, so I’m extremely excited too!
