YOU GUYS
tl;dr - writing plays is a bop and I’m lowkey fire
so waaaay back in December we had a theatre assignment to write a 10 minute play. And I did, but didn’t do a ton of effort or anything because I was SO busy.
well.
there was a 10 minute playwriting contest so my director was like might as well submit them
so I did
Mid January they were like “you’ve advanced! Rewrite it and then move up to the next league”
so I did
then they were like “welcome to semifinals, give it another rewrite!”
so I did
then they were like “welcome to finals give it one last rewrite!”
so I did
then they were like “congrats you got second! We aren’t paying you lol but you get a recording of theatre students doing it”
so I was like huzzah, that’s brilliant
and then tonight they sent me the recording
first of all, literally ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING one guy is definitely gay and it’s also so embarrassing
my director is gonna show the class tomorrow so…that’ll be L O V E L Y
and second…
this feeling is addicting. I want to spend the rest of my life hearing my words in other people’s mouths.
i want to hear audiences laugh at a play I WROTE.
the world will hear me

(The keys move)
IM SO EXCITED he gets to come home next Saturday and he’s so sweet and I’m paying for all the things so he really is mine and not a family dog and I can skip school and hang out with him all the time
except when I’m working
ooo maybe I’ll bring him…at the escape house it’s only me and the clients so no one would ever knkw

“Please, don’t kill him. Never kill anyone. Will you promise me that?”
“Caretaker, how can I make a promise I’ve already broken?”
The full scene will be on my writing thread tonight, I’m lowkey obsessed with it, please give it a read if you have a chance and let me know what you think!

Hmmmm I came home for lunch and now I don’t wanna go back
on the one hand, all I have left it theatre
on the other hand, it’s 2 1/2 hours of theatre
and on my third hand (the one that’s growing out of my left knee) I still reaaaally need to talk to my director
but I could stay here and mow the lawn and take measurements for the kennel I’m building next week or go for a bike ride or or or
maybe I skip my first theatre class and go to my second
the first one has less friends
but they’re more likely to do some busywork assignment I’ll have to make up
help
oh and I’m writing a thing based on One from stranger things because he’s scudding HOT

Wow I forgot that this is the demographic of people on here…
guys I barely go to school at this point
i go when I know it matters and that’s it
(talked to my director, finally…I told him I wasn’t going to spend my senior year in the class you don’t have audition for. He got it but didn’t change his mind, so since I won’t be in any classes it doesn’t make sense for me to be on the presidency. So officially done with theatre, unless I decide to do mama mia next spring but I probably won’t.)

what the actual [bleeping] sigma is up with my director
what kind of person says “I want you in my program, don’t miss out on these other opportunities, we’ll make it work”
then doesn’t cast you because you’re too busy(?!?!)
so you make your peace with it, and plan next year and get excited about it and you’re ready.
then he announces that the class you didn’t make it into is doing post-societal Hamlet
and then he puts you on theatre presidency??
like what the scudding light-cursed goats
does he want to market all the shows I won’t be in??
do you want me to lead a team I’m not a part of?
I could be in a midsummer night’s dream and mama mia. But I’m not going to waste an entire year in a class with people who don’t care.
i need to talk to him and make a plan and lock in but dude what the scud just communicate please and thank you?
hehe ap stats test early tomorrow morning, I’m cooked

I’m sorry, Cin. That’s such a difficult situation to be in. I’ve always considered myself to be lucky as far as all this stuff goes—he’s mega organized (the rehearsal schedule for next April already exists and won’t change), he puts on good shows, he’s LDS, and his wife, our choreographer, is literally my heart and soul. She’s a professional actor and he used to be an equity director, and everything is run very professionally. For the most part, he’ll choose a hard worker over someone with talent who doesn’t care, but…
well, guess that’s done with now.
i don’t know. I honestly don’t know, but at the very least it’s experience and what wonderful opportunities there’ve been because of it.
hold on, mkay?
