charliesmumI'm a founding board member of the newly created Collingswood Shakespeare Company. That's pretty cool, don't you think?
See, apparently in 1910 there was a group called The Collingswood Shakespeare Club, and they were responsible for creating the Collingswood Public Library which, at the time, was one of the biggest in the area, or something. So recently this guy who works for the liberary thought it might be nice for the liberary to return the favor, as it were, and so he came up with the idea of starting the CSC. It is very much in the planning stages at the moment, but apparently we are going to incorporate as a non-profit and hopefully this will turn into a 'thing'.
Currently the plan is to do A Midsummer Night's Dream in July, possibly in Knight's Park. I am personally hoping to get an actual role, but we'll have to see how that goes. Not too many roles for a middle-aged woman in that play, but who knows. Maybe I can be Hippolyta.
Meanwhile, it is pretty nifty to be in at the ground floor of something like this. I adore Shakespeare, so I'm glad to be a part of it.
In other news, nothing new on the job front, and I am feeling sad. And frustrated. I spent a couple of hours on line trying to find something I hadn't already applied to, and my phone has been appalingly quiet.
My house is pretty clean though.
