Oy vey! Every time I work with the hubby on an audition - its pretty disasterous! We end up yelling at each other, picking on each other, pissed off - its no fun!
I have a callback tomorrow for a feature I auditioned for a few days ago - fun fun part! Fun fun script! Wish me luck.....
I havent really written much of anything in recent days - and I have my writing class tomorrow. So its gonna be a late night.....as I've admitted to before, sitting down and starting is the challenge, just as a painter stares at the daunting, empty canvas. Once the pen starts moving on the paper I am fine -- its just the mind that gets in the way and makes the process of sitting down and focusing difficult.
I'm still working on Rabbit Hole. We worked on it Sunday with our acting coach - and she gave us some really good advice about where to go with the scene, how to add more layers to it. I really see myself growing in my work - trusting more and judging a lot less. And man, you have to let go of the "judge," or else all creative impulses become stifled!! Coincidentally, I read that my girl Nicole (Kidman) is producing and starring in the film version of this play. Go Nicole!
I realized over the weekend that I felt really peaceful. I think its because I'm pushing myself to take some risks: taking this writing class and expressing myself in that way, working on my monologues - working on an area in my craft that I LOVE to avoid, and being proactive about following up with casting directors I've met in the past. Taking charge....
Oh - and I'm doing another reading on Sunday for Torn Page Productions - this came from my recent readings at The Actor's Studio. So, as they say: work begets work. I actually had to turn down another invitation to do a reading on Wednesday - I'm too busy! Gotta pick and choose your battles......
