Delays, delays...

While rehearsals for my show have been going along swimmingly, we are currently in a state of flux and delay. I was told on Friday afternoon that our Boston dates (originally planned for June 11-14) have now been pushed back to. Early sings point to it moving to July. This means a couple things to me. One, we have more rehearsal time. This is actually a really good thing because 2 of the 6 actors really could have used more time to further develop their characters/performance. Two, my July travel plans may need some changing but we shall see how that goes once more is confirmed. Three, we still get paid for either rehearsal or performance, which is nice and necessary. Fourth and finally, we are still planning on performing at least one weekend in June. I think (and I stress think since things are constantly changing right now) that we are performing in Peoria, IL and Saginaw, MI in the same weekend (June 19-21). However, until everything gets confirmed, I really don't know what we're doing besides rehearsing until we start performing. That's all we can really do anyway.

That's about all that is going on my life that is noteworthy unless you count getting rear-ended last week on the highway. I love stop and go traffic, don't you? Nothing serious as far as rear-end damage goes though my body shop guy was happy to hear from me again. :) I am taking Lulu (my car) into the shop this week and the other person's insurance already paid me for the work to be done. That was nice! No one was hurt and we weren't going that fast. My bumper is askew and my trunk is hard to open now but it barely looks like I was hit. My poor car has had so much body work but she still runs great which is all I care about. She'll have her LA plastic surgery done this week anyway.

Keep your fingers crossed that my show actually starts moving forward since I, along with all my actors, are very anxious to start performing and get out on the road. I am still really excited about the opportunity. I am just really ready to get moving now.
