“... yet when the servant of the Muses sings, at once he forgets his dark thoughts and remembers not his troubles. Such is the holy gift of the Muses to men.”

GRADUATED!


First Published: 13-07-2009

I am no longer a "Student Actor". I have now graduated to: "Student of Acting". Methinks, at times, these titles are simply my cover for "Unemployed bum who likes to pretend to be things he's not".


It wasn't till the 8th that I officially graduated - with a ceremony, a cloak, and everthing! It was exciting, memorable... but also such an anti-climax. Being finished for 2 weeks before the graduation does that. None-the-less, It's nice for that part of life to be over. It's a chapter closed, a sub-plot ended, a mini-quest complete.
... and now I look to the future; hoping, praying about where to go next. Further study? Agent? Some hard time in the studio?

I'm currently submitting applications for two festivals. Unfortunately niether are paid. Fortunately, both have an opportunity to boost my carreer. So here's praying for a God-given opportunity, eh?

Here's to the future!

In other news, I had some inspiration tonight: Song of Songs (or, Song of Solomon) as a "Dramatic Reading", while a semi-animated set of illustrations are projected in the background. I think I would have 3 weeks to prepare my church's Drama Team (and whomever is willing to illustrate).

Anybody think I have a fighting chance? (although all is possible through Christ Jesus)
Anybody actually reading this?

Godspeed,
