I did, Kristin! You are made of awesome (for many, many reasons, but
S&A
is definitely one of them).
I miss theatre so... the other night Hec and I watched
Tootsie
on TCM, and I'd completely forgotten that the first 5-8 minutes are one long, long montage of all the small weirdnesses and irritations and humiliations of a stage actor's life. It's incredibly, relentlessly demoralizing and I actually miss it. I'm a desperately ill woman.

Clearly you are. That's why I sent you an audition notice.
Hey, I have one of those too! *forwards to JZ*

"Thank you, Mr. Dorsey. Unfortunately you're not the right type for this role."
"I can be taller."
"Actually, we're looking for somebody shorter."
"I
am
shorter. I'm wearing lifts in my shoes."
"I'm sorry Mr. Dorsey, but we're looking for somebody different."
"I can be different!"
"Mr. Dorsey, we're looking for somebody
else."

AH HA HA! Same exact one, in fact! Why am I not surprised?
(For those playing along at home, the audition notice in question is for Pride and Succubus, which apparently "combines the longing and whimsy of Jane Austen romance with the blood thirst of vampires." I ask you, is that not made for JZ??)
It is a Very Buffista Play, from the sound of it.
I'm auditioning even though rehearsals would be pretty inconvenient. I miss doing theatre.
