New job

I'm starting my first show as a stage manager after Thanksgiving. Hung out briefly with my new director last night, and he is an absolute doll. I heart him. I'm trying to be all strong and confident so he doesn't worry, and he's trying to be all helpful and reassuring so I don't worry. How nice is he?!?

Sidenote: Titus Andronicus is the goriest play I've ever seen. I had a special fondness for Shakespeare b/c of Hamlet and S. in Love, but now I'm sure the guy was seriously messed up. Who writes this stuff? But if anybody in the DC area has a chance to go see it at the Clark Street Playhouse in Pentagon City, I think it's more than decent. Impressive, even.
