One of my biggest passions is performing on stage,
it's both fun and challenging for me to play somebody other than myself.
Since I was very young I have had this adrenaline rush while performing
and I have to say it's rather addicting.
It's been awhile since my last show.
Three years to be exact.

I am completely an amateur, out of the loop... whatever you want to call it.
But I have the biggest desire to work on my craft, to challenge myself, and to get
back into my first love of performing.

A little over a week ago I decided to start auditioning again after 3 years.
My sister in law took some headshots of me and I was on my way - I went to 4 total auditions, and the 2nd one I went to was for the role of Alison in Bingo the Musical.
A few days later, I received an email from the director of the show.
She said she "doesn't do this really ever" but asked me to be the understudy for the show.

I jumped at the chance but David was a little hesitant.
The theatre is 45 minutes away and I drive an SUV... talk about killing gas.
But you know what? I'm so excited and I feel so blessed that I jumped back into it and so quickly found a show to be in for awhile... it almost feels unreal, even if I am just an understudy.
Being an understudy is still a compliment.
I get to learn all the songs, learn the movements, improve in my skills, and gain experience all at once!
I'm so excited and felt that this needed its own blog post.

This is the beginning of great things to come, and of getting closer to my dreams!
