Week 3

These last two weeks of my internship have been a lot of work and a lot of fun!

Last weekend was my very last Thescon. I am happy to say that not only did I survive but it also ran very smoothly. There are always some bumps in the road but nothing too big. It is so strange to know that it is my last Thescon I ever have to go to.

On the internship side I have been busy busy busy! The season announcement party is the 24th so I have been preparing for that. It means a lot of envelopes need to be stuffed and a lot of lists need to be looked at to make sure no one has been left off the list or that we aren't sending invites to the same person more than once. I feel like I am always in a battle with my new nemesis, the printer. I will win this one!

In Dreams/Nightmares opens this week, which is crazy to believe because I feel like we just started. I am both nervous and excited for it to go up. But mainly just excited that I get to see my family and friends!

Internship

New Year, new Internship.

Unlike my last two internships this one is a little closer to home. And of course by a little I mean 15 minutes from my house. This semester I am interning at The Springer Opera House (http://springeroperahouse.org/plaintext/home/home.aspx).

My positions doesn't excatally have a name. I am the nomad of interns. If someone needs help doing something well than that is what I am doing for the day. Right now I am printing hundreds of envelopes and praying that none of them end up upside down...

Unlike my last internship blog I do not plan on updating this one every day. How know, it could happen but I'm not planning on it this time. So here is my list of things I am excited about with this internship


1. Getting to work somewhere that I know people and the place.
2. Getting to work in many different areas of the theatre.
3. Getting to sit in on rehearsals for the different shows going on.


I'm sure there are more but the printing is distracting me.
