The Mistake

I had been looking forward to my visit to Glasgow to be auditioned by an agent for a few weeks, but the snow and road conditions closer to the day were against us. There were total closures on the A9 just the day before. But early Sunday, with no indication the road was still closed, we packed the car, grabbed what we needed and set off. Aiming for the address on the letter head and arriving in plenty of time to find a car spot, we waited outside the business address, wondering why no-one had turned up. We waited....and waited. Finally and somewhat reluctantly, we made the decision to leave and head home. Upon arriving home that evening, I realised from the sheet I had NOT taken with me, that the address I was meant to go to was across the city from where we had been.....and I've not been sooooo gutted in a long time!!! What a stupid mistake to make, going so far for something so important and realising too late that I'd made such a bobble headed mistake!

The Stage!

Following on from Outlander last year, I continued with Drama Lab, part of Eden Court's Creative dept and was cast in a melodrama - 'Maria Marten And The Murder In The Red Barn' as Mr Marten. This is the only known photo of our performance....

As always, it was fun to do and I met even more talented and friendly 'new' friends!
Then, when hearing of the Inverness Opera's plan to celebrate their 90th production with 'Calamity Jane', I auditioned for and was cast, as Henry Miller - proprietor of Deadwood's 'Golden Garter Saloon and Music Hall'. We're in rehearsals just now, with our first costume rehearsal in two days time and scripts down in another week!!! Photo's and a new post will follow!
