So, how about this?
So, how aboutĀ this?
I got another show! Itās going up in October/November 2019 and I am so excited to be a co-directing it with one of my best friends, Christa. She saved me from having to give it up due to a schedule issue. So, without further ado, hereās to my next show:

I need to learn
I need toĀ learn
My last few posts have focused on my flexibility, or the need for me to be flexible, when it comes to the upcoming production (and entire experience behind) A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. Letās start with what I know happened during auditions, things that are written and confirmed by my producer and others.
There is a large desire for a weekend audition evening/afternoon timeā¦

It finally happened
My auditions were caught in a hitch, initially, but ended up producing some amazing talent. I am so pleased to have met new persons to theater in general, new persons to my little blackbox theater, and (what I call) classic talentāthose persons who are veterans to the show and/or the theater. It was a nice mix of new and tenured actors, bouncing off one another to produce some amazing scenes andā¦

Progress shots (black top) at my second home, @stridespinandfitness. I love how I look in that Pilates mirror. Iām so proud of this body and all itās done since I started tracking in November (purple top) Itās kind of crazy how strong it is, how strong I am. #thanksStride #grateful #beautifulwoman #strongwoman #hearmeroar #mermaidtights #ipaidalotforthese #imwearingthemout (at stRIDE Spin and Fitness Studio) https://www.instagram.com/mkduran920/p/BumhLGfHwtyTP_GeYr7135nKNvDGwGmG6atA9I0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nlxxo9ji9dls
Flexibility
Flexibility isnāt just about stretching and preparing for an audition, rehearsal, or show. It can be about adjusting for the weather, taking feedback well (and rolling with it), and including new ideas freely and without guff. Sometimes you have to roll with the punches, other times you have to dole out the punches; such is life, and such is theater life.
My first show, my directorialā¦

Rules for auditions
For directors:
Is it really about characteristics? Is their nose right? (This was an arbitrary physical characteristic I pulled out of my head) Is this character mentioned to be a blonde? And does it make sense to buy a wig or cast someone with naturally blonde hair?
What about their capability to handle and receive notes? It can be about how someone acts and reacts versus how they look, andā¦

That's enough...
Thatās enoughā¦
Iāve had enough down time. I finished graduate school. I finished training for a half marathon. I finished the half marathon. I am finalizing the last preparations for auditions (come Sunday).
More to come from this blog as I go full tilt with my production.
Oh, and letās throw some other things on top: -> almost done costuming a show -> almost ready to announce something -> preparing for myā¦

Everything I worked for, trained for, and earned this weekend. So amazingly proud and exhausted. Literally canāt wait to do it again. #rundisney #starwars2019 (at Epcot - Walt Disney World) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuSTU0GHqXnq4RY5D2SKYrtVylYKHxeFdzeP_w0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dhb9siy6w9cj
Today, I simultaneously completed and set a goal. Today, I finished a half marathon at 3:47. Today, I set a goal to finish my next half marathon at 3:40. 7 minutes might not seem like a lot, but in Florida heatāthat 7 minutes can mean meeting a goal of passing out and returning to a med clinic. I am excited itās over. I am excited for April. Hereās to the next one. #runDisney #FairyTaleChallenge #2019Princess (at Epcot - Walt Disney World) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuRv680nuYm7lFfuyZMGQ0oOJzMjpkh3djrZ3g0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cpgy040gxodg

Introspection
What have I learned?
Mostly from rereading this blog, and reviewing a majority of my diatribes, is how much introspection Iāve done in preparation. When I talk about Forum, or preparing for it, I talk with such passion that even I am taken aback by it. I am flat out shocked. I think that I am, and have been, ready for some time.
Longer than I expected to see and longer than I canā¦

Enticement: Auditions
āThe time has come, the walrus said!ā Okay, I have a hate love relationship with this quote. I canāt tell if when I quote that I am the walrus since I am saying the time has come. But thatās enough psychoanalysis for a blog post today, or any day really.
My auditions are in a month! I canāt believe it. IāM SO EXCITED! When I initially started this post, I was curious how I was going to fillā¦

This year I set a personal goal to read 100 books. I am eager and ready to read a book that isnāt school related. However, I do have many books regarding project management on my docket. I didnāt think I would consider a book on directingāfrankly, I didnāt even know there would be books for directors.
Which seems dumb to say, now, because a majority of awesome colleges offer this as a degreeā¦

I want to tell you about myĀ brain
If I could, I would pull an Igor from Young Frankenstein and slap it on the table for Dr. Frankenstein to inspect and declare abnormal. I am riddled with ideas for this blog, often having more than I can write about at any single sitting. Clearly, as I am sitting here writing a new post rather than the post that was next in my draft list.
Now, my draft list is very interesting.
Thatāsā¦
