*high five* indeed!
So I've just rejoined my drama group from nine years ago (and have been frightening people with the following conversation:
Them: "Have you done anything with us before?"
Me: "Yes, I was in
Oklahoma!."
Them: "Oh,
Oklahoma!. How long ago was that now?"
Me: "Nine years."
Them: "NO. WAY. D:") and we're doing
My Fair Lady. And I'm in a pantomime at the moment anyway, so am going to be very busy for a while! So I thought "well, I'm in the panto, so I'll just be in the chorus, or maybe audition for one of the maids, don't want to overwhelm myself". But I keep flip-flopping on whether or not I want to audition for Eliza. I think I'm going to go for it, but I think I'm going to have to cut all dairy out of my life if I'm going to own that G in 'I Could Have Danced All Night' (and if I'm not going to own that G there's really no point in auditioning).
Pros: I would get to be Eliza!
Cons: I would have a lot to learn, I would probably have a ton of schedule clashes, I would have to give up cheese, and I hate the ending.
At what point would be appropriate to admit to the group that I've never seen
My Fair Lady, but I really like
Pygmalion and think Shaw is an alright dude?
(Hey, have you ladies seen who's on the Google homepage today? XD)
