I can't even begin to express how I'm felling, the high that I'm on right now! This is the most amazing andrenaline rush....wow!
Tonight was the first rehearsal for my completed script "The Breakup" (the title is in draft mode). Words can't describe how thankful I am for both Angela and Amy to participate in this reading. They immediately jumped on board and became invested in something so personal for me. I couldn't have asked for a better pair to be involved. Like Erykah said "I'm an artist and I'm sensitive about my shit." I'm the person that's somewhat hesitant to have anyone read what I write because I'm afraid of what their reaction will be. It can make sense in my head but for a piece to have legs and go somewhere it'll need to make sense to those who read it. Furthermore for the audience to truly experience the spirit of the piece those reading it have to make it their own....and these ladies were doing that tonight.
My living room became a theater and I sat watching my words, thoughts, feelings and imagination come to life before my eyes. My dream was manifesting in front of me and I'm sitting here wondering "did that just happen?" I remember when I was the actor on stage trying to understand what the director wanted, was I expressing the feeling that was intended and now I sit in the director's chair. What an incredible shift!
I'm in absolute ecstasy, thank you!
