So Far, So Good

Second day into classes and I'm already lovin' the Theatre Year!

Our section is really great--lots of talent and plenty of dedication/professionalism. Classes are going very well so far. Our first class on Mondays is Dialects. We'll be working on upper class English and Southern (guess that won't be too hard) this semester. Right after that we have Movement with, once again, the amazing Ms. Connie Rotunda! We had an excellent review of getting into our bodies and focusing our attention on our breath. An hour and a half after that, our first of three Acting classes, where we reviewed the exercise of repetition and meditation (moment to moment to moment to moment).

Today was a blast! Our only class was Stage Combat from 11 - 1pm. It's a very fun and exciting two hours, and our instructor has got one heck of a since of humor!

Tomorrow will be similar to our Monday schedule, being at school from 9am - 6pm with very little break time. Thursday is our off day and Friday is a two-class day - Theatre History and Acting. Three day weekend coming up, leaving us plenty of time to get some work done.

Meanwhile, Lauren has introduced me to a site called Mandy.com where I can find postings for casting calls around New York. I sent in a resume and head shot yesterday morning to a small independent film company looking for a male actor (18-24 years old) for a small feature film. Haven't received any emails yet, but it's gotten me so pumped. Hopefully at the very least I'll get to audition. Bring on the work!
