Played a first session of Mörk Borg with a few of the people in my play. It’s so incredibly up my alley and I want to buy the book and all its incredibly cool supplements but I know I won’t have anyone to play it with once our show closes.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

Anyway, I hit all my personal goals I set out for the show this evening. I made people laugh. I made people cry. I made the stage manager super excited because I decided to sing a harmony line that always gets buried.

The kid playing Tiny Tim: “Oh. I gotta go.”
Me: “Okay. Go die.”

Signed a rider to my contract (accidentally in glitter gel pen) to learn the role. Extra $100/week and don’t have to do a put-in rehearsal unless the actor actually goes out. 😮💨😮💨😮💨
Me being told two days before opening that the creative team was told I was understudying a character that is NOT IN MY CONTRACT AND THUS I DID NOT LEARN.

“Everyone HATES having to do the understudy put-in runs. No one has any energy or wants to be there.”

The day after this my agent informed me that they might be doing it as a non-union commercial and that they client thought I could just choose to do non-union stuff???? Anyways, I’ve been waiting in limbo for four days so far waiting to see if they’ll go union.
Booked another commercial voiceover. This is three for three this year. Really kicking myself for not upgrading my home microphone sooner.

Had a half-way decent audition out-of-town today (involving some puppeteering!!!!) and stopped for an espresso after. Was shocked that they had a little vegan lemon Bundt cake that was actually maybe the best coffee shop treat I’ve ever had.
