…rehearsing.

Rehearsing eight hours a day, while hard, tiring and akin to exercise, is brilliant. It’s also something I can see myself doing all the time – and by ‘all the time’ I mean; I’m in rehearsal all the time because I’m jumping from job to job to job and I’ve got lots of shows to learn.

Of course, there are long blocks of time when I’m not ‘in rehearsal,’ because the show is on it’s feet and I’ll be performing – which, in just about 40 days, is will be what I’ll be doing.

That’s the life I’ve always wanted. To actually be living it right now is a gift.

Now, if I were in rehearsal for a brand-new Broadway show in which I’m originating a role created especially for me, it would be almost too much for me to handle.

My confidence is building and I’m remembering, ‘yes, I’m funny and brassy and loud but I can sing and dance with the best of ‘em!’ Even if I need a few more minutes of direction or coaching or someone to point out the obvious every now and then… my group of eight are a very talented cast of folks and I truly believe I fit right in.
