im not ready for king lear to be over im going to cry so much tomorrow i made my cast small gifts to thank them for being amazing and i have to work on our prep talk and post show send off and im just not emotionally ready for any of it omg i want to direct it forever
GUESS WHO HAS THE BEST CAST IN THE WORLD? GUESS WHO IS SO PROUD OF THEM AND WANTS TO GO TO REHEARSAL WITH THEM TOMORROW?? GUESS WHO CRIED LIKE A BABY WHEN THEY SURPRISED ME WITH THE SWEETEST DIRECTOR GIFT???
THIS LOSER WHO LOVES HER LEAR FAMILY <3
so i have about a week before hell week begins (aka the one week of lear) and heres what we got going:
i bought a skull. not for lear. just wanted skull. might make it like “the talking yorick” or some shit for meetings
i have to buy food? i dont trust my actors to remember they have to eat because as an actor i forget that a lot and just keep going
fake weapons???who? i still dont have them
i made a flower wall. again, not for lear. just made a flower wall. it was fun.
oh also i edited the script (and prepared some awesome staging for a bit of dialogue that is actually gonna make me sob)
Honestly, Goneril and Regan’s favorite song is Glory and Gore they are Lorde trash and I support them because like same girls.
(These are the things you think about instead of actually thinking of things that matter for the show that you’re supposed to be working on...oops.)
AYO SO WE WERE HOLDING AUDITIONS TODAY AND IT WAS LIT @alexpyne 🌽
Just sent out my formal audition call for King Lear and honestly y’all I can’t even begin to tell you how aLIVE I feel. It’s getting to be so much more real and auditions are coming and everything’s coming together and I cannot wait to see what happens next.
52 DAYS UNTIL I DIE OF EXCITEMENT AND ANXIETY.
Did a script read-through of Lear with my AD tonight
We took proper notes, fixed some things, and put in some pre-lim blocking idea like good children.
But oh god, our show already has so many memes and half of the time during the reading I was either laughing my ass off, crying over characters (especially Edgar), or questioning why the fuck I’m being allowed direct this show.
The only bad part of the night is the fact that we’re really set on having an air horn sound play after sick burns but I can’t make it happen.
Will I ever take my show seriously? (Yes? No? Maybe.) (But I do love her very much and can’t wait for auditions in the spring.)
