I'm a Panda!!
On Saturday I auditioned for a role in a kid's Christmas pantomine called "Matthew's Excellent Journey". I thought I sucked. Really badly. I was tired, nervous (I never audition well) and, well, let's just say that DDR is a lot different to dancing with people. So I thought I had bombed out and gotten a fat 0.
Turns out that I didn't and I got a role as "Panda". Panda is, of course, a brain surgeon who works part-time as a hollywood dialogue editor and also pens a weekly column in "Time" magazine.
No, actually "Panda" is a Panda in the show. Matthew falls asleep on Christmas eve and has a dream where all his toys come to life and he goes on a journey to find the true meaning of Christmas. An excellent journey. It's a lead role and there's a chorus of kids in it as well, so that's nice. It's a production of the Harvest Rain Theatre Company who do very good pro-am shows in Brisbane town, so it should be an experience.
That's about all I have to say about that, actually. Fun.
Now I have to tell my other friends. "Guess what? I'm a panda!". Chichiri would like photos and would like me to cosplay in the costume to BAS but I don't think so. Ranma cosplaying is soooo passe.
Oh, and props to Patrick for getting his website up and running. I suggest you check out Pink Chickens immediately. I was very disappointed when it was cancelled, so I am glad that he is going to continue it via the web, although he really needs to get a new publisher.
I'm going to sleep now so I will be fresh and vibrant when I present my paper tommorrow.
Yay for me! I'm Panda!
