I got an email regarding organizing my reading for Mrs. Hawking as part of my winter residency. Lesley has engaged six actors to read the various parts, and I have to arrange a conversation with the director to make sure we're on the same page. They're expecting the script by a week from today, so I have until then to edit it into the shape I want read. I'm pretty proud of this piece, so it's a good first step to actually getting it performed to have a professional reading.
I created a Facebook event recently inviting people to the reading. Quite a few of you lovely people have RSVPed that you will be attending, and I want you to know how grateful I am. It means a lot to me that there will be people at this reading. I think because I've been a loner during residencies it's given some of my teachers a weird impression of me. I'd like to have my people present to show, if nothing else, that I've got them. I think it would strike my teachers and classmates favorably. And I have so many insecurities and hangups about this whole process anyway, I think it would be helpful in boosting my confidence.
If you are interested, it will be happening at 6PM on Tuesday, January 8th in the
Marran Theater. It can be found in the Student Center on Doble Campus of Lesley University, at 29 Everett Street, Cambridge, MA. It would mean a lot to me to see you there.
