Auditioning

The in-between is almost over. I just got cast in "Almost, Maine" at the Rubicon! I'm at a point in my career when I almost always get offered roles without auditioning.  But this is one I knew I would have to pull up my big boy pants and go and get.  I am working with Steph again, which is the greatest!  We really do make each other better working together.  But there are times when Steph subtly lets me know that there may not be a role for me in one of her projects.  And early on, she was laying it on pretty thick.  She told me that the playwright thinks the play should be done with a cast of 30 year olds.  And I am not that.  But I have loved this play since two of my friends from Grad School read a scene from it when they were trying to find a showcase scene.  I have been dying to do it for more than a decade.  It's a really beautiful play.  Magical!  And it's all about relationships and some of the scenes are lovely and uplifting and some are really sad.
