W2D4 - Classic Broadway and Opera Composition

Day 4 of Week 2 and I still can't believe it's been less than 2 weeks. My life has been flipped unside down, and I don't even know how to feel anymore. My emotions change from moment to moment. After what happened in Alexandre Tech. yesterday, it's hard to know how to then take a step forward. I tend to over analyse everything. So my mind is constantly replaying yesterdays lesson. It was insane, but WHAT DO I DO NOW? When you have that kind of relization, it changes your entire life. I will never be the same, I can't. I never want to go back to that person that was trying so hard. The idea that I don't have to try seems to easy to me. You just have to be you, and that is enough. It doesn't make sense, there has got to me more too it. Now, that is not to say that you just have to be true to yourself and all of a sudden you are an actor! Performing is incredibly hard work. But it also blanket full of fun!

I'm really starting to notice that I'm not getting enought sleep. I'm still feeling great, but I notice that i'm slowly down a bit. Apparently week 3 is the most challenging. Basically because you are so tired, you are so raw, you finally let everything in or out!!

So today in creative process we made up operas based on stories that we all know. My group chose "Humpty Dumpty!" It was an amazing experience of using the left brain first and then totally using the right brain to peform our creations. They were so much fun.

Then i had a little talk through of Romeo and Juliet. I found out that I was not prepared for Gregorio. I will get it, that's part of what is happening after the blog entry. I can already tell our dirctor, Michale Cavonogue, is going to be fantastic to work with!

Tonight we also had our Broadway Classic's Concert, in which I sang the real version of "Brush Up your Shakespeare." The whole night was fantastic. My favourite set was the "Secret Garden." Adam and Lida, and Fredric were amazing.

Wow, I'm sorry guys, today is going to be short. I'm fading fast on this computer. One last thing, I had a masterclass with Christian Riel. She was trying to help me open up my upper range. I hope i get to work with her again soon.

Peace up all, it's time for a good sleep!

Over Oat!
