Long, but pretty drive down 280 and 17 to Boulder Creek for GSP auditions yesterday. It's always fun to hang out with the group - one reason why we still do it, I'm sure. I have a part. I didn't have any preference going in, so while I'm not super-excited at the role, I'm not disappointed in the least, either. (And that could have been said regardless how I was cast.) I don't think I have a handle yet quite how I'll play it. Well, that's what rehearsals and directors are for.

I took Skyline a good distance home. Windy and narrow, but I wanted to take a different route back. Labor Day traffic meant that I didn't get home until 6:30-7. So we had a simple dinner of duck confit Nicoise salad (minus the olives - the wife isn't overly fond) which was extremely tasty. I'm dragging a bit this morning; but I should get back to work.

Messer Nicia, the old man.

awesome. i gotta tell you, the guy who played nicia in our production just about stole the show -- there is a *lot* of comic potential there.

also: he's "old" in the context of the play but he's not *really* old. he's probably in his mid-forties. sostrata is probably younger than him (just about 40) which makes it quite funny when he addresses her as "mother."

I am sure you'll find this character in no time. Should be fun ...
