1:00 pm	Rehearsal Blog from Friday It's the day after Thanksgiving, also known as Black Friday. Here at Williamston, it is known as day of our First Preview and for this show, it is also known as Opening Night! That's right folks, we have our First Preview of "This Wonderful Life" starring the one and only John Lepard at 3:00pm. Five hours later, we officially Open the show. Normally there's a week of Previews with talkbacks which give us time to do a bit more rehearsing and fine tuning. Not so much this time. Now, from this Stage Manager's point of view, that's slightly on the nerve-wracking side. Have I done this show enough to have the cues set in my brain and muscles? Do I know the script well enough to not have to stare at it the whole time? For such a short play, there sure is a lot going on. Here's hoping I make the director and designers proud! But aside from the nerves, there is that unavoidable excitement that comes with opening a new show - especially one that has such an amazing team of people tagged to it. John and Tony are two of my most favorite people to work with in all the land. We also had the benefit of three outstanding designers, Reid, Tessa and Bart, and I had the opportunity to work with two new people - my incredible crew of Erin Clossen (aka Fred), Rock Star Apprentice and Kate Wilson, MSU Stage Manager Extraordinaire. These people, along with Williamston's awesome Managing and Development Directors, Chris and Em, make up one of the most amazing theatre families I've been blessed to be a part of. It's always important to let people know you care about them, but that feeling of honesty and good will is heightened at this time of year, even more so by this particular show. It is obvious how much Williamston cares about producing brilliant work for their patrons, so please let them know how much you appreciate their dedication to the arts. Come to "This Wonderful Life" - share this beautiful experience with your friends and family and hopefully about 100 strangers who want to do the same thing. Happy Holidays! Love, Stef Din - AEA Stage Manager for "This Wonderful Life" Current Mood: artistic (Comment on this)

7:37 pm	New World Ok, maybe not quite a whole new world, but a new state, at least. Yes folks, I have moved again and am now taking up residence with the awesome K-Fab Doral in Shorewood, WI. It's a super-cute neighborhood just north of Milwaukee. I can walk 10 minutes in one direction to find myself at a beautiful park with the Milwaukee river or I can walk 20 minutes in another direction to find myself at a small beach on Lake Michigan. This makes me happy. As for work, I will hopefully be starting at the Marcus Center Box Office within the next week or so. I'm not looking for anything permanent, as I will be returing to Williamston in November to Stage Manage their Christmas show. This also makes me happy. Many travel plans are on the horizon - CMU in a week, Las Vegas the weekend after, Chicago the weekend after that, New York sometime in October and maybe another trip or two to Michigan thrown in there somewhere. I saw The Phantom of the Opera a little over a week ago for the first time and it was AMAZING. A friend of Katie's got us 7th row center orchestra seats for only $20 so that rocked. I love walking around our neighborhood and I am excited to start work. Sometimes it's hard seeing all the things on Facebook that are going on in Michigan that I'm missing, but I will never be able to be in more than one place at a time so I'm always going to miss something. Such is the way of my nomadic lifestyle. I made some truly outstanding friends over the summer during MSF and am blessed to still be in touch with them. I have no doubt I will meet amazing people here, as well, and am quite thrilled with that prospect. Also, now that I have my new laptop, I should be able to keep up with things a little better than with just my phone. I might just have to start drinking coffee for how much time I'll be spending at Starbucks to use their internet. So, overall, I have no idea where my life is taking me right now, but I do know we're taking the scenic route. And I'm happy. Current Mood: content (Comment on this)

3:40 am	Wonders It's not that I didn't want to Stage Manage the Michigan Shakespeare Festival; I was, in fact, honored that I'd been referred by a previous co-worker - nervous, but honored. However, in all reality, I should have moved to Milwaukee 4 months ago. That was the plan, anyway. Of course, pretty much anyone - especially theatre folk - know how well trying to plan your life actually works out. I needed the money and since I have no personal vendetta against the man, I agreed to do two of Shakespeare's plays, in rep, for 2 months. Now, honestly, in the beginning, even before rehearsals started, I was figuring out the days when I could head back to Romeo or even take a quick trip to my next home, just to help move the time along. I had reached a point in my life where, even though I was completely in love with the theatre where I was working, I felt something pulling me in a different direction. As it turned out, a best friend needed a roommate in one of my favorite cities. I was all ready to finish up my current show and head across that gorgeous Lake. And then came Shakespeare. This is only the second job I've ever taken simply for the money and even that choice was made after much deliberation. For some reason, I wanted to be gone from here. I wanted to be where there would be no expectations of me because no one would know me. And for a split-second, I even thought about giving up Stage Managing, at least for a while. That thought was most quickly banished the second I started my First Rehearsal speech. By the end of the day, it was as if it had never even crossed my mind. So many new people, all listening to me, asking questions and waiting patiently for their next instructions - a perfect First Rehearsal. As the days piled up behind me, I found myself less inclined to leave my cast and coming to the realization that 2 months changes into 2 weeks all too fast. I couldn't be more proud of all of them - cast and crew - knowing obstacles that have been overcome, knowing sacrifices that were made. I love collaborating with complete strangers to create something so amazing, that you can't help but share at least one moment with everyone. And, as is with all people, some personalities match up better than others, sometimes you fit in the whole group, or sometimes, all it takes is that one new outlook, that one new opinion that can turn your world upside-down in the most amazing way...for which you could never have been prepared. I love it when my life happens. www.michiganshakespearefestival.com Current Mood: contemplative (1 Comment |Comment on this)

10:27 pm	Shakespeare So, the last time I posted I was jobless and being stalked by a raccoon. Neat. Now, I am staying in Jackson while Stage Managing The Michigan Shakespeare Festival. It's pretty cool - there are two plays done in rep - this year they are The Tempest and As You Like It. I read AYLI in college, even performed a scene from it for my Shakespeare class (I got an A), but The Tempest was a complete mystery to me, other than my assumption it had something to do with a big storm. Strangely enough, The Tempest is now my second favorite Shakespeare play - maybe even tied for first with Richard III. Anyway, my cast is great, large, but great. It's fun and I just really like being a Stage Manager. And on that note, if I want to be a good Stage Manager, I should go to sleep so I am alert and ready for 8 hours of AYLI. Side Note - Ever since I got this job I can't stop thinking about "Billy's Kids". That was fun. :-) Current Mood: working (1 Comment |Comment on this)

2:20 am	Beetrayal by Raccoon Once upon a time, not too long ago, in a land not too far away, there was a girl who was staying at her parents' house while they were away. One night, the girl noticed both her precious kitties were staring intently out the dining room window and making strange growling noises. Assuming there was some sort of woodland creature on the opposite side of said window, the girl made her way over to the cats and peered into the darkness. There, on top of the standing bird feeder in the pool yard was a raccoon! He had climbed up the stand and somehow managed to hold on and scoop the birdseed out at the same time. Rather impressed, but still annoyed, the girl rapped on the window. "Hey you", she yelled. "That's not your food". The raccoon paused his consumption and looked towards the girl as if to say, "Hey yourself. I climbed up here and found this food so that makes it mine." "But it's for the birds!", she protested. He looked back at the food, then back at the girl, "I don't see any birds, do you?". "No, I know there aren't birds out now, but it's still their food. Get down from there!". One more look at the food, back to the girl, "Nooo, I don't think I will, but thanks for the chat.". And with that, he went back to eating the food. According to the girl, the conversation had been, while ineffective, rather pleasant and as she watched the nocturnal creature continue its meal - every so often checking to see if she was still there - she actually found him to be cute. He wasn't bothering the cats and she could always put more birdseed out in the morning; which she did. Time passed and once again, the girl was home while her parents were away. They had encountered the same raccoon at times, still doing nothing but eating the birdseed and being cute. With the warmer temperatures, the cats preferred to be out at night, which was fine because they had food in the garage and the door was left up a bit so they could come in for shelter if needed. However, unbeknownst to her, the raccoon had decided he wanted shelter, too. It was late Monday night and the rain was pouring down. Both cats were out, but the girl was not worried. She was watching TV when she thought she heard the door to the garage rattle, as if something at knocked against it. At first, she thought it must be one of the cats, wanting to come in, but as she got closer, the door rattled again and this time was accompanied by scratching that sounded a lot stronger than a cat. Her heart beating fast, she reached the door, smacked it with her hand once and flung the door open just in time to see the tail end of a raccoon racing under the partially open garage door into the night. Awesome. After the raccoon disappeared, she focused on the rest of the garage and saw an overturned garbage can, paw prints all over her car, broken terra cotta pots and watering cans on the ground. Then, as she turned to go back in the house, she realized what he had been the subject of the scratching - the door frame was in shreds! Pieces of plastic from the step into the house had been ripped up and nearly all the paint on the bottom right hand corner of the door was gone. Immediately she knew she had to get the cats inside. A quick trip to the front porch secured Fraser, but Shannon was still out there. Running to the deck, the front porch, the front door and the garage repeated calling for him for the next 15 minutes came up with no results. She stopped for a few minutes to think and decided to get a flashlight and go out to look for him. But what if the raccoon was fighting with him? She grabbed a mop for protection and headed for the garage. Suddenly, that same scratching and rattling was heard once more - he was trying to break into the house!!! Not so cute anymore. Once again, she pounded on the door, flung it open, saw him run and heard a hiss. She thought that must have been Shannon and called for him, but to no avail. Out into the rain she went and just as she passed the covered TVR, something moved the tarp. She screamed and ran back into the garage. This went on for a good 3 hours until finally Shannon appeared at the garage door, unharmed. What a night! The next morning, the girl discovered the recycling bag had been emptied and the bottles and cans were all over the floor of the garage. Awesome. The girl had lost any love for the "cute" raccoon and was quite ready to punch it in the face if it ever came near her house and/or cats again. She kept the cats in Tuesday night which was a good thing because sure enough, he tried to break down the door again. She pounded on the door, scared him out of the garage, ran to the door and slammed it to the ground. Take that! Wednesday morning, not a single item was out of place and her cats were annoyed, but alive. Granted, there were still tons of paw prints all over her car (not her Dad's, just hers), but those will disappear in the car wash...along with her sympathy and adoration for the masked bandit of birdseed and trust. The End Current Mood: blah (1 Comment |Comment on this)
2:15 am	Hilarious Carnage and Stars Galore Monday through Wednesday are days off for me during the run of a show at Williamston (unless I'm working on the next one...then they're spent preparing). Since the rest of my summer is pretty much booked, I decided I needed to go to New York now if I was going to see Jeff in Yasmine Reza's God of Carnage also starring James Gandolfini, Hope Davis and Marcia Gay Harden. Plus, it's been 6 months since I was last there so it was high time for another trip. Per usual, my flight there was delayed and after a 7 hour wait in Detroit, I was sent to Minneapolis/St. Paul for an hour before finally heading to New York. So, I arrived nine hours later than planned, but it had rained all day anyway, so I didn't miss too much. Tuesday was spent walking around this most incredible city with the air cool enough for a coat, but not too cold to enjoy the walk. Lunched and shopped with Tony before preparing for my night on Broadway, followed by dinner with fantastically wonderful friend Sadrina and a quick subway ride to Times Square to get to the theatre. The theatre is beautiful, of course, and my seat was great. Extra great because a few minutes later, Tim Robbins sat down in the row in front of me and a couple seats over. Shortly thereafter, he got up and walked across the aisle to hug someone. As they parted, I saw that it was Julianne Moore! Neat. :-) The night was already off to an interesting start. Even without the stars in the audience, it would have been incredible. The energy onstage was lightning in a volcano and it didn't stop until the set was a disaster and actors were slumped over furniture, on the floor and against the walls. Jeff's facial expressions were absolutely priceless - the whole cast was divine. The instant the lights dimmed for the blackout, the entire audience, as one, leapt to their collective feet with thunderous applause, cat calls, screams and cheers. We were almost as exhausted as they were - almost. Being the incredibly important person that I am *laugh* I found my way to the stage door - which was actually kind of hidden in a garage - and was given directions to Jeff's dressing room. It was great to talk to him afterwards and while I was there, Tim Robbins came to say hi and Jeff introduced me. A few minutes after he left, Tom Waits came in and Jeff introduced me. :-) Good times were had by all. After that, I floated out the door and into the city lights, deciding to walk back to where I was staying seeing as how it was only 13 blocks. Once I got out of Times Square, there weren't too many people around, so I was able to forego my "New York Walk" and simply enjoy all my surroundings - which I did, immensely. Wednesday gave me lunch with Joe and an excellent round of "tourist" where we ran around Times Square taking pictures of each other. I was even interviewed by Fox News, but am positive that I sounded and looked like an idiot so will never be aired. But still, the camera guy was way cute so it wasn't a total loss. The flight back left only a half an hour late, but because of the winds, we were able to make up the time. As were were taxi-ing down the runway, I felt that all-too-familiar pang of heartache that comes with leaving something one cherishes dearly. I remember crying almost as much when I left after living there for 5 months as I did when we left PA, which I'd been born and raised in for 16 years. Still, I know I'll be back - sooner rather than later because I have to see Lauren Graham in Guys and Dolls because I love her - and eventually, there will be one day when I get there and won't have to leave. Ever. Except to visit friends and family who don't live there. The End. Current Mood: ecstatic (Comment on this)

1:51 am	Bon Jovi Oh. My. God. Richie Sambora and JON BON JOVI smiled at me and Heidi tonight!!!!!!!!!!! See, here's the thing: Heidi got tickets a while ago and I was planning on driving like a maniac back from Rockford (where I was supposed to be working) to the concert and then back to Rockford afterward. It would be rushed, but it would still be Bon Jovi. However, due to flooding, the Rockford run was canceled, so I'm home. On Sunday, I was in my kitchen and I randomly put on 96.3. I heard "Bon Jovi" and tuned in intently. They were having a contest at the Fisher Building Monday morning called "Big Hair for Bon Jovi". The 25 people with the biggest hair would win a pair of tix to the concert AND the special SIDE STAGE EXPERIENCE - meaning we got to go up right next to the stage for like 5 songs!!!!!!!!!! So yeah, I went down to Detroit at 7AM with super-big hair and a home-made t-shirt. And I won. :-) I have NEVER been that close to a rock legend in my entire life. :-) Even excluding that amazing experience, the whole concert was just outstanding. He is just such an incredible performer - so fun and SO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!! :-) Heidi and I totally rocked out and I am just still in a bit of shock that I experienced just a little piece of Heaven tonight. :-) Have A Nice Day, everyone. ;-P Current Mood: jubilant (1 Comment |Comment on this)

4:56 am	Home again, home again, jiggity-jog I have returned from my second, much shorter trip to Milwaukee. I got back from the month long stay on Monday afternoon (by way of the Ferry, thank you very much!!!), got some pictures developed, played with the cats, did some laundry, and unpacked and repacked and left Wednesday night for Ann Arbor. I was housed by the awesome Miss Heidi Bennett and Mr. Sean Carter and Heid took me to the Megabus station the next morning. This was my first Megabus adventure; it wasn't as horrible as I thought it was going to be and I actually learned a few things: 1. If your bus leaves late, your driver may attempt to make up lost time by driving like a maniacal speed demon. 2. There is slightly more leg room than on an airplane, but way less than on the Amtrak. 3. Do not bring an umbrella. 4. Do not turn the overhead lights on when it gets dark. 5. Do not bring more than one carry-on. You will end up making more room for it than yourself. 6. Do not head towards Chicago during festival time. You will end up sharing a seat with 6 and a half other people. 7. The Upper Level is better. 8. There is a Chocolate Garden somewhere on the western side of the state - Exit 29, perhaps. 9. There is an actual road called "Lovers Lane". 10. There is something called an "Air Zoo" somewhere near K-zoo. 11. As I wasn't traveling with friends, I would have died without my MP3 player. At any rate, it was an adventure and totally worth it to spend time in Milwaukee. We watched fireworks Thursday night, I saw my Pirates lose horribly on Friday, but enjoyed the whole aspect of Miller Park immensely, we had a picnic in the park overlooking the lake Friday night and watched as a family started feeding seagulls, just waiting for the moment when they would all gang up and take the smallest child. It was a perfect weekend, complete with awesome Char and Pat time in Chicago. And now, it is bed time so I can wake up to finish unpacking and prepare for my BON JOVI CONCERT ON MONDAY!!!

6:41 am	On the Michigan Waterfront I just got back from a nearly 2 hour long walk and I feel amazing! I went down to the lakefront to watch the sunrise this morning and it was awesome. I literally saw the Glory of God. It was so quiet by the harbor - you could only hear the wind and the water (and, of course, the occasional goose and/or duck). And at 5:12am on the dot, a red fire began to glow from the farthest edge of the lake. It became lighter and brighter as it grew, finally separating itself from the water with an orange path leading straight to where I was standing. The rays cut through the empty sails of the sleeping boats in the marina and I was in awe. I stayed a few minutes more, just long enough to see the change from red, to orange, to yellow before taking the scenic route back to the hotel. As the sun rose, it seemed to draw out the people of Milwaukee and I exchanged a "good morning" and smile with many a biker, walker, jogger and skater on my return journey. It was a good morning (and technically still is) and I fully intend on taking advantage of this gorgeous start to a day - right after I get some sleep. I thank God for my sunrise and for all of you. Love! Current Mood: loved (1 Comment |Comment on this)

2:34 am	Ode to Milwaukee in June Milwaukee's great for festivals With its summer sky so blue RiverSplash, Jazz and Summerfest Just to name a few. This city's made for walking At either day or night The buildings shine in the sun Or glow in the dark with lights Take a stroll down Riverwalk See the ducks and gulls Or go to a play or concert Never a moment is dull You can cheer for the Brewers At their Miller Park Or you can watch as fireworks Light up the sky after dark Whichever activities you do Will be a perfect summer blend All will thrive in this city by the lake Until the summer's end. Go Pens. :-) Current Mood: artistic (2 Comments |Comment on this)

1:25 am	More Menopause Well, it looks like I'll be stuck with "the 'pause" for a little while longer - at least another month, anyway. TOC (the main producing company of the show) asked me to go to Milwaukee after the Detroit run and ASM for the month of June! :-) I, of course, agreed instantaneously! Not only am I getting to work with the awesome Production Coordinator, Kim Simari, but HELLO - I'll be living in MILWAUKEE with my KATIE!!!! :-) AND, they provide housing! I'm super-excited! As for the Detroit run, it's going well - I at least have my full cast back! And of course, I still love my whole crew with all my heart! Also, tonight as I was driving home, I found myself relaxing from the two doh shay instead of stressing about the drive. Granted, it totally helps that the weather's better, but still - I was listening to good music, I had my sun roof open and my window half down. I could smell the trees and flowers mixed with the fresh night air and I was calm. Cheesey, I know, but it was nice all the same. Current Mood: content (2 Comments |Comment on this)

3:48 am	Time Travel Thank goodness for theatre - it gives you friends all over the country; i.e. different time zones. I had the most wonderful conversation with Lexi tonight - from about midnight till 2am my time, but it was desperately needed. I had just hung up with Jake and was feeling particularly sad, but we just talked about everything and nothing and it was perfect. I love you, fraind! 8-o Current Mood: drained (Comment on this)

2:17 am	A Night on the D-Town So last night I was convinced by Eric and Andrea to go see the other Eric in his play at Planet Ant. I wasn't really in the greatest of moods, so I didn't think I'd be great company, but somehow being at work cheers me up. The play itself was also totally awesome and we all went out to Seven Brothers afterwards, where I saw INGA!!! We haven't seen each other in like a year so it was amazing and wonderful to catch up. This afternoon, since it was so nice out, Andrea and I went for a walk around Comerica before our call. It's so pretty down there. And there are a lot of things within walking distance that I had not realized were that close. This pleases me and makes me wish for the Spring to come SUPER QUICK! Tomorrow, we're watching My Big Fat Greek Wedding in between shows and Stephanie is making Greek food for everyone. :-) Yay theatre!!! Current Mood: confused (1 Comment |Comment on this)

12:45 pm	I'm with the band... So last night, Andrea, Emily and I went to the Park Bar in Detroit to hear Eric's band Innerphonic play. Mario was there, too, running sound for them. It was totally awesome. I've never really listened to that type of music before - I mean, it's kind of techno, but...I don't know... it's kind of hard to explain, but there is a LOT of rhythm so, being the long-lost drummer that I am, I was loving it! They didnt't start till almost midnight and I stayed for the whole thing - 2 hours, meaning they weren't finished till like 3am once daylight savings time was calculated in. I got back to my hotel just shortly after 5. Oof. Checkout was at noon and so here I am at work again. Anyway, it's just so sweet to see your friends in their element. Eric was having the time of his life - they all were - and it was beautiful. I am, of course, insanely tired and my contacts are so not pleased to be in my eyes again, but it's worth it. I forgot how much I like just going out - music, friends, the whole shebang. Detroit's pretty cool. I think I like it here. Current Mood: contemplative (Comment on this)

1:09 am	Working Girl No, not THAT kind... I start work at the Gem tomorrow for Menopause: The Musical. Yay work! Andrea (my ASM) and I will be trained by the MTM national stage manager and then we start rehearsing with the cast on Thursday. I bought the soundtrack to better prepare myself and it's pretty fun. :-) All the songs are oldies that I like - just with different lyrics. And although I'm never fond of driving to Detroit and back all the time, the fact that I'm driving to and from a job helps. Plus, I'm excited to meet new people, even though it's going to be weird SMing a show where I don't know anyone in the cast. But, Mario and Kevin will be there again so that helps a lot. I love those guys! Oh! And I think I'm gonna get to see Mamma Mia! for free! :-) Gotta love those Fisher connections! Thanks, Kevin!!! Anyway, I shoud probably get some sleep - I'm still pretty excited from watching the Superbowl. And I don't think it really matters who you were cheering for, you have to admit that was one heck of an exciting game! And Tom Petty totally rocked the halftime show! (And I'm really happy the Giants won - while at the same time feeling really bad for Tom Brady because of how many times he was sacked. That had to hurt!) Wish me luck on my new theatrical endeavors!!! Current Mood: okay (1 Comment |Comment on this)

1:58 am	very sad face On Sunday, we had to have my dog, Oreo, put to sleep. She was 16 1/2 years old and her health was definitely not at its best, so the vet said it was the best decision for her. I picked her out of our neighbors' dog's litter back home in Ligonier. I was 10. We shared the same birthday. I taught her to catch popcorn. I took her to school in 7th grade. She thought she was a horse, she thought she was a bloodhound, she thought she was a person. She loved everyone. She would have let any stranger into our house as long as they gave her a pat on the head as they passed by. Luckily, both our houses are in safe areas. Unconditional love. I'm trying to focus on my upcoming trip to Chicago this weekend, but every time I go into the kitchen and don't see her staring at me from the hallway, or go outside and don't see her "guarding" the house from her bed......She's a good dog.

3:45 am	I'm Moving! Hey All~ Here's hoping this update finds you all quite well!!! So yeah, I'm moving again. The show I was Stage Manaing (Escanaba in Love) had to close early so my roommate (who was in it) and I found ourselves scrambling for work in the immediate area. Not being able to find any, we decided we'd given Chelsea an excellent few years and it's time to move on. She is off to Chicago and though I'll be coming back to The Purple Rose at the end of December, I cannot afford to stay here by myself and am consequently moving back to Romeo until further notice. So for now, I've got some time off before Stage Managing "Jeff Daniels: Onstage and Unplugged" (yes, I'm totally bragging because I'm super-excited). Then more time off, then back to the Gem in Detroit for Menopause: The Musical in February. Hopefully. I haven't signed anything yet so ya never now. ;-) I send best wishes and good thoughts to you all!! Current Mood: restless (1 Comment |Comment on this)

11:12 am	Closing Time Well folks, the time has come. It has come a little earlier than anyone planned, but hey. Such is the ever-changing life of theatre-folk. Escanaba In Love is closing on Sunday, November 11th. So, PLEASE come on down if you haven't yet - or even if you have, come again! Help us go out with a bang. Three weeks is slightly less time to plan my next move than I had originally hoped for, so if anyone has any ideas, feel free to share! Until then, Love and hugs to you all - and maybe, depending on where you live, I'll see you sooner than we thought! P.S. Go see GUYS ON ICE (Williamston) and THE POETRY OF PIZZA (The Purple Rose) Current Mood: weird (1 Comment |Comment on this)

7:53 pm	Disbelief Williamston was hit by a tornado. A really mean one. Thank God our friends are all right and the theatre held strong! My heart goes out to all those people and I am sending good thoughts and prayers your way. They had to cancel their show, "Guys On Ice", tonight and since they don't have power, who knows how soon they can get back into their space. :-( Hopefully as soon as possible. We all know any theatre doesn't need to lose any more money given the state the economy is in right now. Sadly, all theatres are suffering. GO SEE SHOWS. It's really not that expensive and as they say, "theatre is good for the soul". Current Mood: sad (2 Comments |Comment on this)
