rehearsing

had my first up on our feet rehearsal on Tuesday at the Odessey Theater in Santa Monica. It's a really nice venue, I had never been there before. We used a side rehearsal room and did a bunch of Viewpoints based exercises mainly focusing on movement and physical work. The cast seems very nice and it's always interesting to see the first few rehearsals when no one knows each other and think that in a matter of probably two weeks we are all going to be best friends, at least for the time being. That's how it goes. Luckily I am not the only one who doesn't know everyone else.

One guy couldn't remember my name and he called me Tiny Lady. It's ok because I can't remember his. And I am only tiny in comparison because I think he is 7 feet tall.

Busy weekend ahead, more rehearsals for the play and it's the final weekend of principal photography for Checkmate. Since I am housesitting in Santa Monica I haven't seen Maeby very much and I miss her like a son of a bitch.

Glad to be working though, and especially that I like the people who I am working with.
