So touring...is rather quite fun. Completely exhausting, but fulfilling. Except, for some reason, I am sick again and it is pretty bad. No wild symptoms - all seems to be internal.
Seeing different parts of the country, both affluent and poor, has been, and continues to be, amazing. Performing for kids who would otherwise never see anything theatrical is an amazing feeling (despite my aversion to some kids).
Seeing leaves change their color for the first time in my life, set against the mountainous backdrop of North Carolina, was incredible. I am such a nature nut. We have stayed in some interesting hotels (meaning seedy, but intriguing) and are being treated to a two-day stay at a Holiday Inn Express in Greenville, South Carolina.
I am taking pictures and flagging a map (http://www.flagr.com/maps/3098) so feel free to check out all the weirdness and beauty.
Show is going well and I find that I am not getting sick of doing the same thing or doing it twice a day. The show is fun, well-written , and cleverly directed so the experience is positive.
Touring does teach you a valuable lesson in human interaction and personality negotiation. I find it best to shut up, smile, listen and stay positive. Why ruin an experience like this.
That being said, I am looking forward to getting back into the city only so I can get started auditioning again and getting more work.
