Tonight The Rose Gardener opens at The Tank Theater on West 45th between 8th and 9th Ave
Show goes up at 7:30pm both tonight and tomorrow (Monday), tickets are free
This experience has been both exhilarating and exhausting. We had several road bumps along the way-little rehearsal time, tech time did not go as planned, and I am running the tech. Now, I took tech in college and have done my fair share on shows from time to time but nothing like running your own tech while trying to direct. Good news-I can now program a light board and am able to run projections.
It's going to be an amazing reading tonight and tomorrow-if you have a chance I HIGHLY recommend it. On top of that I love hearing feedback about the show.
In other news application season is in full swing. In the next 24 hours one more will be turned in. Before I go home to Michigan I plan on submitting 3 more.
Looking forward to seeing you at The Rose Gardener!

Applications and Rose Gardener
Well January is underway-2010 Fellowship Application Season.
I'm kicking it off with filling out applications and directing a reading of The Rose Gardener at The Tank Theatre.
Applications are a part time job when you are an emerging director. All of them have essays, letters of recommendation, and various supplementary materials. Needless to say its time consuming and a marathon. But, it must be done. Women's Project was finished on Friday, one down.
The Rose Gardener is a show I've directed twice before with playwright Sara-Ashley Bischoff. We are in our final text work stages. Sara-Ashley is hard at work today reworking the script while I focus on some of the design elements. All of our prep work needs to get done today before our first read through tomorrow. I'm hoping to keep this blog updated with how the process is coming. Its going to be a quick two weeks but I have a feeling this reading is going to bring something special to the table.
A lot is happening over the next month-keep in touch!

New Years
And I would like to become a better writer.
Forgot to mention that.
I need to spice up my writing skills in order to rock those applications and grants.
Speaking of, I have some artistic statements to write.
