Another Openin', Another Show

Well, before I knew it, another show I was cast in is nearing the end of it's rehearsal process and we open on Saturday.

Rehearsals are going well, the cast is hilarious, the material, is hilarious, and the show promises to be, well, hilarious.

Esper classes ended last week, and I was asked to continue on into the 2-year program, so now I have a somewhat major decision to make as I need to figure out if I can financially afford the program and if it is going to interfere with other shows and Betrayed (which is still breathing and seeking new life in different venues which all promise to be amazing but none of which I can talk about as nothing is really that set).

It's hard to justify spending the money on the classes for only one reason - my booking a job is not going to be dependent on those classes. Yes, the training helps and will make me an even better actor, but the truth is that I am going to get cast based first on what I look like and if that fits the character and second if I can act the part. That probably does not make any sense outside of my own head.
