I was IN this hsow about 3 years ago. I was Constable Warren. Its kind of a boring show that can be good in the right hands. (now no offense as I dont knw you and your acting abililities) but I have never seen a High School do this show well. Its mainly becuase it is such an unfunny show and there is so little sets to deal with. But hell. Run with it. I love acting. I just got off one of the leads in the show the nerd!.


"Aya, thats the way it goes. Back in 84 we had a ball player Sy, name of Hank Todd. Even 'Ol George Gibbs coiuldnt touch him. Moved up to main to become a Parson"

I know what you mean....it is pretty boring. But I like the fact that we have almost no sets/props. Itz really fun.

Thats really cool that you were in this!

Yay! We have ou longest rehersal yet tomorrow. Even though it isnt really very long [6 hours]. Ive had rehersals for other plays that have gone from like 9am-9pm, sometimes longer. But tomorrow should be fun

JESUS SAINT SUZET!!!! a 12 hour rehearsal! Ive NEVER hd one last tht long! So how are the ins goig. I know having a lead ca be a VERY stressful ordeal. The lst show I did (about 2 months ago), The Nerd, We had a lead quit the show 1 week before opening night. I had the smallest part (actually written for a 10 year old, a d Im 25) and I got upgraded to the part. I was off book after 3 rehersals! But let me tell you, I have never been scared of doig ashow,but opening night Iwas shitting my pants to be sure, btit turned out great and I think Isurprised pepl with one of my first leads ( Ive had Joseph in Joseph and the amazing Technicolor Dream Coat and Mr. Mushnik in Liottle shop f horrors in HS) I hope your show goes great! Break a leg!
