Wow.
Wow. Wow. Wow.
Not since Man of La Mancha has a show moved and changed me like Aida has. There's a kind of sad calm in my life now, as though something so huge is missing. It's like loosing a boyfriend or something. I went into those auditions thinking that role was written for me, and then as we got into it, I started to really doubt myself. The songs were harder than I thought, the technical aspects of the "Suit" costume were stressful. I have been going through this internal crisis, that I continue to plow through, though this show has really pushed me out of the tunnel and into the light.
I want to spend my life on stage. There are a million things I could do and be happy, and there are even a few things that I can do and make a lot of money. But -- if it's up to me, and I have the choice to spend my life doing what I want, it's performing, singing for people. There's nothing on earth like singing on a stage. And, honestly, Aida, the show, the role, the cast, the support of so many wonderful people, and I think for the first time ever, I honestly believe in myself. So, thanks for that.
The new job is fun, really laid back, and really interesting. I think that I am going to learn a ton from them, and after putting in some good time with them, if I am not working as an equity actress, I will have some great opportunities to work in marketing and PR. Perhaps I could be a publicist.
I'm excited about the Gilmore Girls premier tonight, and I'm excited about that new show, "Heros"
Goodbye little show, I've been happy here.
