Per usual, I got a motherly role as the nurse and the caregiver of the main character, Antigone.
I think about Theater as a career a little bit more everyday, but if there's one thing it's showing me, it's this: I get cast in the motherly, caring roles because that's what I'm good at. Maybe I'm not an actor at all, and instead I'm just someone who cares a whole awful lot about other people. I think, that maybe, I'm just meant to love the world and all the people, including the lost, broken students in Up The Down Staircase, the little boy dying of Hemophilia in The Yellow Boat, and the crazy family I called mine in You Can't Take it With You. Yup, this will be my fourth show as this motherly, caring role.
I'm pretty stoked.
