Tonight was the Read Through of my next play, Sly Fox. This is a ribald comedy that was written by the same person who wrote M.A.S.H. It is funny if a bit dated. I wonder how some of the jokes will go over since they are ao dated. I’ll be playing two roles in the play, Policeman 3 and Crouch’s servant. There are a couple of people who were in the last play but it is mostly made up of an all new cast. I look forward to seeing this play come together. While I’m a bit disappointed that I did not receive a larger role I’ll continue to put in my time and maybe as I learn more and work more at acting I’ll get meatier roles.
The sticker is on the light booth. Allison is going to make Andy a shirt with this saying on it for Andy’s play.
Today was International Waffle Day. We had chili leftovers and so Allison suggested that I get some Cornbread mix and she make Cornbread Waffles for dinner. They were excellent.
After dinner I walked up to auditions for Sly Fox at ACT. I read for a few characters and then it was over. I headed home and awaited a call from the director or assistant director. They said that they would make the choices that night. I received a call later on and was offered the role of Policeman 3/Crouch’s Servant. I’m not sure how many scenes I am in but my characters have 6 lines. Who knows, I started the last show with no lines and then became the main juror and then in the last performance, the lead. So, anything can happen between now and opening night.
