So I really like Phil even though I just met him yesterday. Weird, 'cuz it seems like longer. But this morning, Phil's still in my mind, just pushed to the back.
All I can think about is the bulletin board in the middle of the schools courtyard. Why? Because this years fall production is being announced today. Why do I care? Because I voted for what play we'd choose. Why did I vote? Because, if you couldn't tell I'm a fairly stereotypical gay about this. This being musical theatre. Or any sort of theatre really. I love watching it, I love acting in it, I love working behind scenes, everything really.
We did the Wiz last year. Since I was pretty new, I got a fairly small role. But, I found out I could do stage makeup pretty well. This funny old lady named Bobbee taught me about prosthetics and certain makeup for certain lighting and all that shit. It's really fun actually!
Anyway, I pushed and elbowed through the crowd until I got to the bulletin board, thoroughly out of breath from that short bout of physical activity.
Let's see... my eyes scan down the board;
Spanish club
French club
Library services
Volunteer opportunities
Fall productions! There it is!
....Shrek the Musical? Tf is this? They made a musical from....Shrek of all things? Well, whatever. I'm still auditioning.
Wait...Phil! I lost Phil in the crowd somewhere!
"Phil? Phil!" I call, spotting him. I run over to him. "Phil! They're doing Shrek the Musical this fall and I'm auditioning and you should audition with me!" I say this all in a rush and he laughs.
"Woah. Slow down." he says. He pauses, trying to detangle my words. "Wait. They made Shrek into a musical?"
"I know, right? Anyway I'm auditioning, and you should too!"
His face squinches up a bit (adorably, of course), before saying "I dunno, Dan. I don't like being on stage much."
Heyy guys.........
So I've been thinking....
What if I posted a bit more often but with shorter updates? Would that be good? I think it's probably be easier for me that way, so maybe I'll try it out for a bit. Anyway, I hope you guys like this bit and the future stuff. G'night!
