slack

how ridiculously slack have i been over the past 9 months? we all know the answer. i will stop being so lazy. to combat my laziness, i have devised a plan. i will list the things i hope to complete over the year that will be 2011. this is thanks to a beautiful friend who always happens to put a smile on my face. she also reminded me that i have one of these, not that she's ever read it.

so here we go.

- complete my dip ed
- complete cert iii & iv in fitness
- audition for waapa (mt)
- audition for nida (mt & acting)
- apply for nyu (tisch)
- concert/cabaret for wtg
- direct a show/do something for wsc
- get an agent
- get a paid gig
- finish a tv script/pitch for a documentary/screenplay/webseries
- write at least 100 pages of fiction
- perform at the guilds
- make a front page
- upload 10 youtube videos
- eat more unprocessed food
- play state league


by writing them down and putting them in a public forum, hopefully it will push me to be more proactive.

wrong answer

this guy asked me something today and i replied with the wrong answer.

after a great dance call, they lined us up after we had danced in our smaller groups. they turned, spoke to each other for 30 seconds, and made a decision if they wanted to keep anyone.

they were cut throat and only wanted the best. they turned a couple of times to look at me, and when asked the question, "have you had any professional musical theatre experience?", i replied with "no".

BUH-BOW!

so when you're in that situation again, young william, always remember to say yes. think on the spot and make it up.

LIFE!

spring awakening. totes.

spring awakes has just opened at the sydney theatre company. i forgot how much i loved the cast recording and have been listening to it for the past couple of weeks, but listening to the australian male and female ensembles, i find, really adds something to the score. it feels more meaty, not as airy as the original cast recording (which i LOVE), but this heavier sound takes it to another level.

a friend, who also saw the orginal broadway production and has seen one of the STC previews, says it's great to see an australian adaptation. the set looks stunning, the music will be fierce, and the cast is hot.
