I am done with scenes for class. Cowboy Mouth went surprisingly well. Jacquelyn said that it is the best version she's ever seen, and that our work completely changed her view of the play. I still have to work on keeping things simple - that I don't need to do more work than I have to, which is still a problem I keep dealing with. But it still was a very good scene, and I'm glad that I did it ... despite the problems with the scene partner.
Today started our last week of first year. (So crazy!!!) We worked on our beginning moments in PT - Will and I brought back our This Is Our Youth scene ... still one of Hilary's favorites I think since she kept saying how much she wanted us to do it for Friday. Our last repetition class was spent talking to each other about how we individually have progressed in this past semester and year. Mine was summed up into the idea that I am a huge chameleon. Good. The one critique I got from Cynthia though has been on my mind all day - Don't apologize for being good at what you do. That's something I lost control of back in college when I would get the roles other people were pretty much crying over. I have to keep reminding myself that those people are not up here in New York, I am. And that means that I need to take ownership of the talents I have. Something to definitely work on over the summer.
That's all I am going to write for now. More later.
