Well, we had auditions for "Duck Hunter Shoots Angel" this weekend and they were pretty successful, if I do say so myself. We were able to cast the show, which is always good. Having met the cast, I can say it's going to be a fun group. There are a few people I've worked with before and a few new people, so that's always a good mix. One thing I love about theatre is that you get to meet at least one new person every time you're involved with a show. This time, I'm working with 5 new people! Well, 6 if you count the director.
Last night I made a contact list and sent it, along with the rehearsal schedule, to the cast. I'm meeting one cast member at the theatre tonight to hand off his script. Our first rehearsal is Tuesday.
I had the difficult job of contacting the people who didn't get parts, which is never fun. The sad thing is, they were all good. Really good. But when you have 20 people auditioning for 7 roles, it never works out for everyone. Someone has to get disappointed.
So anyway, that's the beginning of my Stage Manager Adventure, I suppose. I can't wait to see what else is going to happen!
