Hamlet

Being an actor right after directing a show is funny. Interesting too. I already have a bunch of ideas for how I would direct Hamlet, or at least how I would play the character. Of course, I do that with just about every character in every show I'm in, so I guess it isn't really news; merely something to mention.

I have to admit, I'm sad that I'm leaving. There are people here I know and care about a lot, not to mention I still want to start a band, a production company, a theatre, and all that. And I know I can do those things elsewhere (and likely with even more success since the market here is bloated in those areas), I just know people I could do those things with here. But I'm going, and I need to make new friends, while keeping in touch with these ones, too.

I'm tired; 6am work and 6pm show, both at 5 hours a piece, doesn't really give you 8 hours to sleep ever. Funny that.
