Let's talk Macbeth.

Today was the last performance of Macbeth *SOB*. It was most definately the best production I have ever been in. Both Lady Macbeths (Lady Macbeth, Lady Macduff, and Macbeth were all double casted) were newbies and they were AMAZING! The witches stole the show. Of course. ;) Ben (Tybalt in R&J) and Tyler (Mercutio in R&J and Bottom in Dream) were AMAZING Macbeths. Erica and Tess were awesome Lady Macbeth's and I can't wait to see what they do next year. Jess (Juliet in R&J) was a murderer this time around. A very small part, but she played it SOOO well! Everyone with smaller parts totally hammed it up and acted it well. Especially Hecate, played by Anna (Gregory in R&J and Puck in Dream). SHE WAS AWESOME! I'm so proud of her! And Annie (Mustardseed in Dream and Peter in R&J) played Macduff's son who is brutally murdered (by her older brother, may I add.). WOWWOWOWOOWOW! She was GREAT!

The witches were played by me, Megan (Lady Capulet in R&J and Titania in Dream) and Sarah (Montague in R&J and Lysander in Dream). We rocked. we got the coolest makeup. Fo' sho.

Pictures will be up later! :)

5 Quick Takes Saturday

~1~

It was sooo warm yesterday! I was so surprised, especially since it's FREEZING today.

~2~

Opening night for MacBeth is next Friday at 7pm est. *gulp* I'm knitting chainmail for our fighters. We only have about ten people who REALLY need it, and we have about five knitters, so that's only like two things per person, not too bad. We're just using gray yarn with BIG needles and making two rectangles and sewing them together. Easy Smeezy.

~3~

I've been sick for the last few days. I couldn't keep anything down. It. Was. DISGUSTING!

~4~

Yesterday, mom, Sarah, some friends and I went to the Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes in Litchfield in Litchfield, CT. It's BEAUTIFUL! They have an outside little chapel, and the most beautiful stations of the cross. It's like a hike through the woods, almost. Except, it's not really woodsy. I mean, it is, but it's paved road with random benches everywhere. If you're ever in the area, make sure to stop there. And tell me, so I can meet ya there! They have a GREAT Catholic bookstore, too.

~5~

I'm doing ballroom dancing again! Soo fun!

Summer

Summer's soon! YAY! And tech week is next week. *gulp* I know my lines, my blocking, and my costume is almost done. I'm really psyched! And nervous.

This year, instead of the measly little elementary school, we get... THE HIGHSCHOOL! Which holds over a thousand people. And is air conditioned.

I'm going to a couple camps, too, this summer. And then... MY SWEET SIXTEEN!

My 300th post

WOOOOO!!

Anyway, more MacBeth stuff. Today we blocked two witch scenes. SO COOL! Hecate (Anna: Puck in Dream) had a lot of fun torturing the witches, one of which just happens to be her older sister, Megan (Lady Capulet in R&J and Titania in Dream)

Zat Crazee Scottish play

So. It just hit me I haven't been doing a very good job at keeping everyone updated on MACBETH!

Shame on me.

Anyway, we're doing alot of blocking.

Yeah.

And the fighters are hard at work meeting every week to practice their blocking.

SO. that's really it. I have a rehearsal today, so I'll try to update again after that. BYES

Finally getting a Halloween Costume and the play that I will be performing in :)

I got my halloween costume yesterday! I'm gonna be a (drumroll, please) GO-GO GIRL!! YAY!! The costume is very cute. It's a knee length turtleneck dress. I'm going to wear white leggings with it, and try to find a pink go-go girl wig and cheap go-go boots. I'm gonna try to put some piccies up. Yay!

And.... Last Night, Kelly told us the play we're doing, and the casting. ARE YOU READY FOR THIS!! Drumroll, Please. BUMMMBADAMBUMMBADUMMM!!

We are doing..................





















MACBETH!!!! WOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!!!! It's one of my favorite plays so I am sooo excited!! I'm playing the Third Witch!! YES!! I REALLY wanted to be a witch, So I'm really psyched! Jess (Juliet) and I wanted to be witches, but alas... Jess did not get the part of a witch. But, she DID get the part of the first murderer... Haha... She is soo funny. She was like, "YES!!! I get to be a bloodthirsty murderer..." Who knew someone could go from being sweet, innocent, meek Juliet to a murderer? Heh. Not me, for one!

Anyway, MacBeth will be played by Ben (Tybalt) and Tyler (Bottom and Mercutio). They're going to be soo AWESOME!! Kelly had to make some roles a split cast becasue our group is becoming soo big. My fellow witches will be played by Megan (Lady Capulet and Titania) and my sister Sarah (Montague and Lysander). Lady MacBeth will be played by Erica and Tess, both newbies, but both AMAZING actresses.

I better get going, but don't forget to read your Shakespeare!
