What's Your Secret?
Tonight at rehearsal we were asked to figure out what secrets our characters hold deep inside of themselves...because, let's face it, we all have secrets.
Even I, who I am sure everyone has pegged as a no secret kind of girl - what with this blog and my way of wearing my heart on my sleeve - has secrets. Like my director Jeremey pointed out, secrets can be the stuff that you think about that nobody knows or maybe something that you currently DO that you keep to yourself or mabye your secret is something you will do, in the future. I think my secrets are less about things that I have done which I dare not tell anybody about and more to do with the belief systems I hold about myself. All this talk about secrets made me revisit one of my old Findswhich is a most amazing display of anonymous secrets...check out Post Secret...
Maybe I should let this theme inspire my next Konkin Question. Of course, if I can't get you guys to submit answers about DOGSthen I don't know how successful asking about SECRETS will be...
Rehearsals are going well. The brakes went on my car and cost me $800 today. I am also living in a very tiny room with no closets. I am working through a very interesting script with a very talented cast and I am missing my boyfriend something awful. Chemainus is lovely, even though we have to boil the water to drink it and all my clothes are stored under my bed. I am working through Julia Cameron's new book Finding Water and it feels great to be writing my morning pages again. My two room mates are awesome, one of them being my leading man. He and I are already thick as thieves and I can see why you would cast us together. My goal is to nail this accent, bring a brilliant complexity to Kay (my character in Murder on the Nile) and lose weight. And I want to figure out birth control that will allow me to have safe sex and doesn't consist of latex or chemicals.
Yeah, maybe I don't have any secrets.
