Hi, I'm Zak. This'll just be our little secret, right? I'm an 19 year old kid with too much time on my hands and a blog to fill with the things I like. I love theatre, music, and politics. I'm relatively nice, so please don't hesitate to send me an ask if you'd like.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a play I can pull a monologue from?
I have been looking all weekend, and I have yet to find one. The character needs to be male with ages ranging from 16 to early 20s. Keep in mind that the play also needs to be accessible, meaning I have to have the play on hand for context and character analysis, so it can’t just be a monologue written specifically for auditions. I need suggestions and quickly too. Inbox me or reply to this post. Someone. Anyone. Dis some serious shit.
When tech rehearsals start
I’m home for the weekend from college, and I probably will be every weekend that I have the opportunity to be. I hate it there. I feel suffocated. When I pulled into my driveway this afternoon, there was an immediate feeling of relief that I felt.
Well, I am finished with my classes for the day.
Psych was okay, besides the fact that I have 300 other people in the class. I think I’ll be alright. I just bought the text book for $135 because it has to be brand new, owing to the fact that we have to use the online system that comes with it. My teacher is only a grad student, but she has five years of experience as a character performer at DISNEY WORLD. She seems nice enough.
My intro to theatre class was alright too. I don’t know many of them, but it’s relatively comfortable. Everyone is so ready to get started, and auditions are tomorrow - I haven’t prepared anything. -.- Then later, we all have a theatre majors meeting. I’m so overwhelmed because not only do I have work, but I am required to do a theatre practicum every semester until I graduate (provided I stay here and don’t transfer - which I am going to).
Time to go work on my transfer applications now. I feel okay for the first time in the last couple of days.
I’ll be singing tonight at my thespian state conference in the solo musical competition.
One of the judges on the panel is the world’s sixth-ranked tenor. I am intimidated.
Audra McDonald sings I Could Have Danced All Night during the rFamily “cruise” at Club Med Ixtapa - July 15, 2010. Seth Rudetsky (on piano) kept changing to higher and higher keys without telling her as the song progressed.
That last note, you guys. She is such a fierce bitch. I wish I could be in NY to see her in Porgy and Bess right now.
I just got back from my last thespian banquet of high school.
All the seniors each sang an individual song to say goodbye. It was really bittersweet for me when my sponsor dismissed everyone. I’m kind of sad, but I’m more than ready to move on with my life.
I’ll hold on to these memories for the rest of my life.
