Assigned Short Play + Comedic Monologue

Last week, I was assigned the short play that I was to work on for Mr. Foxworth's class. I quite like it. I enjoy historical time periods and it was interesting that I was assigned this play. The time period was dull and simple, and therefore, less was more. I'm excited to start working on it!

...Obviously my hands (and mind) were idle and they drifted off to Matt Bomer... :)

I've also chosen my comedic monologue last week for my independent study class. I will be playing the character Monica from the short play Quiet Torrential Sound. I thought the character was really interesting :)

Whew! This semester is B-U-S-Y!

Character Analysis for Monologue #1

Hi everyone! I just thought I'd update you all on the progress of my independent study class.

• I'm finally enrolled in the class.
• The class is called Audition Preparation.
• I meet with my adviser every two weeks. So, we have two Thursdays each on September and October. I don't know what goes after that.
• My first monologue is from the play Flipzoids by Ralph B. Pena. I really suggest reading it. It's a powerful play.
• I've already memorized the monologue. I still struggle about what to do with myself. Do I stand still? Do I pace? What mannerisms does my character have? What do I do with my hands?!!!

I think I've also found my comedic monologue, thanks to my rehearsal class with Mr. Robert Foxworth. I will talk about that in a different post.

Oh, and finally, since it is Tuesday, I got another chance to chat with Marsha Thomason on Twitter! Seriously, I feel so lucky when she replies to my tweet. I'm such a nerd :)
