Sooo I miss the Aiken Community Playhouse. A lot.

I’ve been thinking about this the past few days as I try to decide whether or not to audition for The Great American Trailer Park Musical in May. It would mean I’d have to stay in Aiken for half the summer, but it would also mean being back at the playhouse with what I’m sure will be a great cast of great friends who I miss dearly. And ever since I did Picasso, I’ve wished I’d done a non-youth show muchmuch earlier. One of my biggest regrets is undoubtedly being too timid to audition for any of the musicals directed by great directors who I happen to get along great with— and who I found out after I graduated that they’ve been dying to direct me. haha yeah, what the fuck….

So one of them will be directing TGATPM, which is annoying to me because of how much the culture that show portrays pisses me the fuck off, but it could be fun nonetheless. It’s apparently a really enjoyable show on the whole, though not top quality.

And fact remains I haven’t been in a full play since Picasso.

So thinking about all this I just got all nostalgic and shit about ACP, and went through some of my past characters and was just like dawww good tiiiiiimes. So I’m posting that. Chyupchyup.

I’m so immeasurably grateful for everything ACP has done for me. Considering my school had no drama program, I definitely wouldn’t be in NYC now if it weren’t for them.
