I just really want to feel supported. What's the point of it if you feel like your efforts are merely a nuisance. that your aspirations aren't worth the time. |

I attended the first preview last night of The Blank's "Little Fish" and was slightly disappointed. I had heard mixed reviews of the company's work, often that in an effort to draw an audience they cast "big" names into roles that might not be the best fit, and last night was no different. While Mrs. Ripley gives an out of this world performance, her voice seems tired and unsupported throughout the score. Kirsten Sanderson's direction is shoddy,she seems to be a generally competent at understanding the emotional resonance of Charlotte's struggle but completely lacks any shred of visual interpretation. The rest of the cast hits and misses throughout the evening. That is, everyone except Greg Jabara who proves his chops with one of the most complex and hilariously awkward scenes I have ever had the joy to witness as he takes on the role of Charlotte's washed up boss, Mr. Bunder. One huge mistake was in the casting of Broadway alumnus Chad Kimball, his performance is completely out of place compared to the rest of the cast. His movement is far exaggerated and his voice is grating and unrealistic. His interpretation is horribly predictable and his delivery feels rehearsed and stagnant. He sings like an angel but needs to learn to fit in organically with the confines of the company. The true flaw is Michael John LaChiusa's work. While there is no doubt he creates some beautiful moment musically, he needs to seriously rethink his point of attack. What triggers Charlotte's reversal? And why should I even care about Charlotte at all? She seems whiny and unhappy and just needs to pop a pill and stop singing about cigarettes. He seems to have given us exactly what Robert refers to as "the blob". Completely devoid of any real emotion or reaction and once she finally shows any real feelings its wrapped up as a stereotypical spousal abuse and breast cancer sandwich. The band sounded amazing, which is refreshing is smaller LA Theatre. Adam Rigg's lighting was flawless probably the best I have seen this year. And the set was innovative and exciting although I would have liked to have seen him go a little farther with it, I imagine this was due to space confines. Go see this play to see the brilliance of Alice Ripley's interpretation of the book and some really innovative design, but please don't say I didn't warn you. |

So many things suck. My car got towed at 2am in hollywood last night. My own fault cuz I have like 6 unpaid parking tickets. BUT! I sent my registration in in the mail, and I guess the DMV never fucking got it. so now I have to go in today to the DMV and pay for my registration + late fee (WTF!) THEN I have to go to the parking violations and pay for my tickets. THEN I have to go to Hollywood Tow and pay to get my car back. Yes, I admit this is my fault since I am the worst person at paying parking tickets. And I dont have a car.....

Look at all the good reviews for my show I designed!!! Except, I don't really understand whether backstage liked my set or not? I guess being mentioned at all is a good thing! http://www.backstage.com/bso/search/art http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117934 http://www.curtainup.com/limonadela.htm ps. I did not take the horrid picture that has me credited as taking it. I don't know how that happened! |

I finished Deathly Hallows, and I feel empty and full. I wanted to near the end so badly, but the closer it got the sadder I felt. I'm gonna miss reading them. Should I just reread them over and over again for the rest of my life? !!! |

Hey strangers. Yesterday while with Audrey and Del we found a baby kitten in their neighborhood. She's the sweetest cat ever and really cute. But she's really personable and socialized. She's still pretty young, Im guessing around 12-15 weeks. She's already litter trained and is awesome. Thanks Guys! |

Ive always been a pretty tough critic when it comes to acting and whatnot. But all of these classes are making me even worse. I feel like I can't even enjoy things anymore. I want so badly for everything to be brilliant, and I know that expectation is rediculous. yes. |

Life has hit this weird point where things are going really well and I havent thought about sleeping all day in two weeks. which might seem like not a very long time but two weeks of no sleeping in is amazingly impressive. I feel like something should go wrong. But I sure do hope not. |
