\"\"<\/a>I got called out by a friend of mine the other night — “The Go Button, not updated so much, hmmm?”<\/p>\n

Yeah. It’s actually really embarrassing that it’s January and I haven’t updated since November. I’ve been busy, and to be honest, the Facebook epidemic swept through the Frankenstein<\/i> company and took up most of my webpage-updating energy for a while.<\/p>\n

Frankenstein<\/i> has now been closed for a month, and I’m currently working on an adorable new musical called Wanda’s World<\/i>, which is billed as “a musical for the ‘tween in all of us.” The site appears to be down at the moment, but here’s the tickets<\/a> page. Anyway it’s a very fun show, aimed at middle school kids, but with a great score and a very talented cast that I think will make it entertaining for all. We’re currently in tech. I’m assisting (again!) so I’m sitting alone backstage while they work on a giant dance number. I really want to PSM something, but I’m going to be careful what I wish for because I could very well wind up doing a show in the spring right before going back to Reagle<\/a>, and that means 4 PSM jobs with no time in between. I would probably be burnt out after the first show at Reagle. As it is, I’ve learned that it’s best to leave a little cushion before the start of the summer. I had about 18 hours between my last show of the spring and when I left for Reagle last year, and I was worn out very early in the summer. A job is a job, but if I have a choice I’m going to consider the importance of my sanity for the rest of the summer. I had less than a week between Frankenstein<\/i> and Wanda’s World<\/i>, so a week or two of intermittent sub work would be just fine whenever it comes along.<\/p>\n

The best thing I can say about my career right now is that I have so many insurance weeks that it’s a non-issue in considering job offers, and I have enough savings from Reagle and Frankenstein<\/i> that I can afford to work at a loss for a while. This is very important, because every now and then the job that pays the most or gives you the pension & health points is actually not the most challenging or most helpful to one’s career.<\/p>\n

So that’s what’s been going on. Sorry to keep you waiting!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
