okay, so... maybe its just me that thinks when a man is courteous, considerate and does "what I think a man should do"...that he should do those things. Hmmm maybe that could have been said different but, I am mentally at a point where If the man doesnt open my door the first chance he gets he doesnt get a second chance. So, I have been rehearsing for this play, " The Young and the religious" where I am playing a sidekick character to some women with the lowest self-esteem I have ever read about. This character was written to be the example of a women that finally gets her fairytale ending". Now, because I am a writer Its difficult me to understand what the director wants me to do. I have written several plays, as a writer I leave nothing to chance and nothing is implied, therefore the dialougue is impecible. These are things professional writers know. We started rehearsal at the end of FEB beginning of march or something like that but we have only actually rehearsed the play twice. My issue is now, instead of the director giving me directioon which is her job, she wants to show me how to do it and then wants me to immulate what she just done...on top of all of that I am a re-cast meaning the cast is already a family unit.
I am what you would call a professional. I have received paycheck for service rendered in such capacities: acting, comedy, singing, poetry reading and performance poetry. I am a professional artist, Which means anytime I feel like you are trying to punk me I punk you right back. The director has an issue with how I responded to my love interest, So she told me that I dont know my man nor do I know my God. Are you shyytn me? this chic was serious so I laughed and decided that I would stop being passive. I was mad for a minute but then I thought about everything I had done and realized that I dont get what she wants me to do because I havent been around silly schools since I was in grade school. Outside of what I think about this script I am going to let God have his way. So, if I ad-lib and freestyle on the parts I think are corny as hell then so be it. I am still concern with the process of thinking when this play was written. Because, the director is supposed to be a godly women, I am thinking that the holy spirit would have moved her to make some adjustments to the script. But there have been no adjustments and no moving of the Holy Spirit since the play was written I guess thats why I am there. To say the least, I am still doing the play but know that MY GOD, gets very angry when he feels he's being punked. Can You handle the IinI??
