Godspell and other Stories

So coming home for a weekend because I happen to be just done with school. I have always thought that I would enjoy college but I need a break. Spring is here and I look at all the Universities in Utah and they are all out or will be out with in the week. Any who that is not what I am going to talk about in my blog that was just a little venting session. So recently I went down to Utah for a callback for the Godspell. I have always wanted to play the role of Jesus or John the Baptist. I had the opportunity to revisit one of my favorit Music Director Ms. Anne Puzey. I also happen to reunite with a fellow director. I was going into the callback quite nervous. They gave me some sides to read and some music to sing and we did dance callbacks. I must say it was one of the best callbacks I thought I had. I was the very last Actor to read for Christ and sing his part. I was so thrilled. Later that evening I got a call and a text message from the Director and the Choreographer. The text said we loved your callback. I was very happy. The phone call was even more exciting. The director said we want you to come play Jesus. I was so excited I couldn't scream because my family was all asleep I would have had some angry siblings and what not. But this early Spring/Summer I will be in the production Godspell. I have been really blessed for getting this role and being able to participate in a good cast and crew.

So going back home to Salt Lake I mean people don't look at Utah very much they look at the big cities LA, New York or Chicago. I think Utah is coming on the map it is becoming more of a populated city like the big cities in the U.S. I must say I really like the downtown Salt Lake aspect of things. I love the urban setting it is getting. Easter has come and I am thrilled to be here I just can't wait for school to be over with. I can't wait to go to a university. I am thrilled and no one is going to stop me or crush my joy. I am hoping to go to California with my girlfriend Amanda I love her so much. Can I say she is the one for me. I picked my significant other well. A partner in crime. My girlfriend, I trust her with my life. Their are a lot of people in my life that make me happy yes even if the siblings and I get in a fight. So what we move on it happens. I will just step back and let the handle their own problems. That is of course if someone comes and asks for help.
