Artemis.

Don't know what I last posted here but the last months or two have been a complete whirlwind of new people, places and experiences. As per usual this isn't going to have any structure, as most of you who know me know I do stream of conciouness. Well Artemis. Wow talk about finding a home!! I've finally found people who get me and love me entirely the way that I am. It's amazing that I've only been with the company since January but already I'm right in the heart of it. I initaly started as ASM on the production of "ThemBones", which went fantasticly by the way (more on that later), and before I knew it I had become P.A to Christina, the artistic director, and was assistant sound tech for "Bones". I also thought I was going to take time off and not work on "Satan's Fish" but how wrong was I, Iam now understudy for two of the three female parts and intiating a lot of the moves for one of them as the actress has been sick and can't attend rehearsals. I'm also going to be working of "Mary Shelley goes to Hollywood" and hopefully have the female lead in "Oscar". How mad is my life?!?! I have also made some of the most incredable friends, sound/lighting techs, band members, musicians...and I've done public singing. I have also been invited to submit a peice of writing for consideration for production under the Artemis banner. I can't believe that this is all happening to little, old me who was never cool at school, who was always being bullied for being the freak, the geek and the outcast. It's all been so worth it. I'm finally a someone.
After a fraught few months on "Bones" it fianlly went into production, and that was scary! here was me who had never done sound before sudenly assisting the sound tech. But It has shown me where my heart lies in theatre and that's on the tech side. I can't believe we pulled it out of the hat!! Thankfully "Satan's" seems lesss chaotic!!
Well enough whittling from me,but I just wanted to give you a flavour of what is happening in..... OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe I forgot to tell you, Stuey scored the part of "Schmidt" in "Satan's" I'm so proud of him. HE's never acted before and he is doing me so, so proud. I can't believe how fantastic he is and Vince is drawing such a good performance out of him. He's loving being a part of Artemis and Artemis seem to loving having him so all is very, very good. Very good.
