Thursday. Spoon River class this week was based on stories in CSftS. We had to pick one of the stories, personalise it and tell it to an assembled group of people who in real life were the class but in the imaginary circumstances were the audience at an honarary evening, either for you or for the 'person' who was being honoured.
My notes from T were that it was well presented, connected with the rest of the class but I could've chosen a story more from the heart. Fair enough. The speeches ranged from too personal and not connected to very emotional and connected. And everything in between.
It's a great feeling to work with someone else's story and make it yours (that's acting, folks!). Really starting to expand my horizons and build my actor's faith with this spoon river work.
Back home and worked through some casting stuff. I need to send my hs/res to Jim's referral.
Nice afternoon with Laura and her two girls who played with littl'un. The evening was mercifully quiet and we watched some Jeeves and Wooster. Nice...
Checked the festival website and, there it was in black and white, the film hadn't been chosen. Balls...
