A Very Grimm Christmas Story...

So I've worked on a number of shows at The Annoyance so far as a Stage Manager/Techie: Georgy Porgy, The Perfect Wave, Special Import, & Love is Dead... and I've added a brand new show to that list: Splatter Theatre (where my official title is: Assistant Blood Manager... trust me there's a lot of blood effects).

Well today I just had the first rehearsal for a show I'll actually be performing in at The Theater... Hooray!

It's a horror holiday show that we'll be creating entirely though the use of improvisation, which is really exciting to me (because I'm a huge dork). The cast is almost entirely made up from people from my graduation class at the Theater - and my friend Sam (the Director for Splatter). We're only one rehearsal in so far, but I'm super excited about this show - our director rocks, the cast rocks, and the whole process looks like it's going to be super interesting.

Now back to tech stuff for Splatter - we open incredibly soon, and there's a ton of raw meat to procure, and fake blood to make... my official performance debut can wait... Mwuahahaha!
