Our Noble Mission is Almost Complete
Tis the closing night of ROCKY HORROR! I'll have two shows (an 8pm and a midnight), some strike duties tomorrow, and then run lickety split back to the city for a rehearsal at 6pm. I'm doing another reading of SCAM, by Blair MacKenzie, playing the brash and sarcastic Cassie at New York Theatre Workshop on Monday night. Whew! I will be sleeping all day Monday so that I'm alive for the reading!
I am nerdily loving this book I picked up last week at McNally Jackson, my favorite NYC bookstore (and not simply because it is my namesake)! It's called My Mother She Killed Me, My Father He Ate Me, and it's a collection of fairy tales written by contemporary writers. As they're based on real fairy tales, they are DARK, and all SO good. I tend to read a lot of classics, so I'm thrilled to now have a bunch of new (to me, anyway) writers to check out.
A quick dinner, then off to don the feathery eyelashes and excessive purple eyeshadow of Magenta once more! By the way, the title of this post is one of Riff Raff's to Magenta in their final scene, before they belt epic notes and the spaceship blasts off. Y'know. The usual.
