I suppose I should start this new round of blogging with an introduction.
I’m Cassandra Lewis, a junior at UMW, & I’ll be playing Lady Capulet.
(Dear readers, please bear with me as this post is inevitably going to be long-winded & circular.)
Before auditioning for “Romeo & Juliet,” I was told by quite a few people that [...]

I am an incredibly superstitious person. I don’t know why I just am. In high school I directed a streetcar named desire, an actress backstage accidentally said “Macbeth” on opening night and I actually yelled at her. I then proceeded to do all the “good luck” things in order to wipe away the curse. I call it [...]
Well… Wow. That pretty much made me feel like a talentless person watching that. I didn’t know acting like that was possible. I couldn’t even clap my hands when it was over because I was in a state of awe. Acting and script. I don’t even want to discuss it tomorrow in ideas in performance… [...]
In ideas in performance I’ve been forced to rethink on what exactly “performance” is. It’s quite an interesting class. For “24″ this year I decided I wanted to write and direct for it. (My last chance at directing here.) There was a slight problem pretty early on though. Maggie and Taylor (two of the writers) [...]
I just came from my first costume fitting. While they didn’t have anything that I will actually be wearing onstage, they did have mockups of the vest and pants, and i got to see the rendering of what my completed costume will be like. The vest is pretty self explanatory, but the pants are these [...]
There was a problem with my posting this earlier, but I got it worked out, and luckily I had the text saved.
So this is the very first blog post recording my progress on my character Benvolio, my senior project. I’ve read the script about 5 different times now, and marked out the scansion of my [...]

I will use my superior reasoning skills given to me because of that piece of paper and achieve things. [...]
“Twenty Ten.” Well that just sounds gross…
Published by January 7th, 2010 paulmorris in Mercutio. 0 CommentsI was recently told that my “list of people I respect” was arrogant. In my opinion it is something that Mercutio (at least the Mercutio I am creating) would do if he had the special privilege and powers that come with blogging. I thought about it and then through the usual routes of denial and [...]
