Freezing Rain and First Preview
Woke up to a reasonable snowfall, followed by freezing rain, and now, just rain. Blegh. Had a seriously pissed-off moment in the parking lot at Walmart, of course, when a woman decided it wasenough to scrape her front and rear windows, but didn't bother to scrape the side one. Think maybe you might need to see out those windows, you idiot? Or that the side windows couldn't be nearly as bad as the front? Moron. After having cleaned my windows thoroughly FOUR times today, so that I didn't kill someone. Let it go, let it go, breathe, breathe, in with the good, out with the bad.
We've just hit intermission for "All You Ever Wanted To Know About Bad Theatre" here in Barrie - it is a show, despite the material we were handed at the beginning. Now it remains to be seen if the audience appreciates any of the humour contained within, which there is. Perhaps a bit vague at times, definitely some clown, but comedy none the less.
Been a bit grey and somber today - both climactically and emotionally. Just getting through to opening this show, and working on the next. I'm really excited to be working with Cathy Elliott on her new show Moving Day. 1969, first man on the moon, mother alone in an empty house surrounded by packed belongings, waiting for the moving men.
Still re-examining self, still enjoying the gym (a slightly dirty old man was hitting on me, very obviously, in the sauna tonight), enjoyed a brief listen to the CBC (Ma Brown, I thought of you, as a woman yodelling Mozart came on this afternoon - of course it was on Jurgen Gothe's programme!) and finished a show.
Spending a day in St. Jacobs to watch Dial M this Saturday. A little break before the next show.
And congrats to Jeffrey Buttle, winning the bronze for Canada tonight - he's a member of GoodLife here in Barrie, so we're close, doncha know.
Goodnight
