In which I get to make fun of arigi's death and have a passionate love affair with A.J.

[theyellowhobbit]

Casting just went out for Teatron. Luckily, my nightmare did not come true.

That's right, yours truly is Mrs. Trotsky [not actually Natalia Sedova, just plain ol' Mrs. Trotsky] in "Variations on the Death of Trotsky." (arigi is Trotsky and A.J. is Ramon [He looks pretty ugly in that picture, but our Ramon will be young and strapping]. In one of the variations Mrs. Trotsky and Ramon are having an affair...)

I think this is the only time in Rachel history that I've actually gotten the part I wanted (in HS I got bit parts and in college I've never made it in until now. I would have been happy with anything, but this is mamash the part I wanted.)

So anyone who is up for a trip to Philadelphia- my show is February 14th, 15th, and 17th. If you're coming for Shabbat I'll invite you to my semi-exclusive Teatron pre-show deli-roll meal.

Thanks to everyone who tried out. (And I'm sorry for those of you who didn't get in. A.A. I still think your audition was amazing.)

David Ives=Cool.

I really want to see performances of the rest of the plays from All in the Timing.

I've seen Sure Thing performed at a talent show by some friends of mine many years ago, and my friend gave me a solo rendition of The Philadelphia.

In case you didn't know, we're doing The Philadelphia, Variations on the Death of Trotsky, The Universal Language, Words Words Words, Long Ago and Far Away, and Ancient History. AND Sure Thing is separately being performed a week after/before our show (I can't remember) by the One-Acts. This is David Ives season.

Wow. I was gonna tell him that, but thanks to you I can be lazy!

noam_rion- my guess is that it's a schlep from Canada to Philly, but if you wanted to come see the shows, I could either host you myself for Shabbat or find people for you to stay with. Maybe I could have A.G. over as well.

*plots evilly*

Well, mazel tov!

I assume I wasn't cast, since I haven't heard anything from anyone; but I'll definitely come see it!

[sen-ichi-rei.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you weren't cast. (I guess Lesley didn't have your e-mail. she sent out the list to everyone who had auditioned whose e-mail she had) But thanks for trying out. And yay for coming to see it!

[dr_whom]

She totally had my e-mail address; I wrote it on my audition sheet. Weird.
