bex77I got to watch two nights of Theatre@First's auditions for Mary ZImmerman's "Metamorphoses." It's always fun to see familiar faces and meet new folks, especially when they are so talented! I am so thankful for each person who came out in the rain to try out, who dealt with their nerves and showed off their best acting. We had 5 times as many people as roles! I don't know who will be cast, but it felt like every person there would bring something special to the stage.
It's great to feel the excitement about our latest project. The mixture of Greek myth and modern themes strikes a chord. But most of all, with all the sadness and despair about the news coming from every part of the globe, it is so wonderful to have a place to escape for a few hours, to see people doing awesome artsy things, to gird our loins to go back out and fight for a better world.
Mark your calendar for opening night - April 8th!
