    [Updated with some official photography from Whitney Ferguson Photography! If I had known the first pics would be this fast, I would have waited the day to post (: ] Once upon a time, my husband received a Facebook message from a high school chum saying her sister-in-law had just moved back to central NC and…

  • I do so love a George

    I guess it’s extra official now that it’s Facebook-official. Very excited to sing in the inaugural production of NC Summer Rep through UNCG!  Even after all this time, I HATE auditions. I mainly tried out for this program as practice, since the leads were precast with alums who are working professionally and I have no connection…

  • Cupid Aim, Cupid Pull, Cupid Shoot

    Zanna, Don’t! pics from this winter are done!  They were taken before the ankle sprain. This move didn’t exactly happen the second weekend:  Zanna was not a show I expected to do. Because teenagers. Silly me. Not that I’m complaining!! If you don’t know the story, it’s set in a world where homosexuality is the norm,…

  • A Thousand Words

    A Thousand Words

    We love our apartment… even if there are a few things we wish were different.  Like the kitchen lighting.  It’s not exactly conducive to gorgeous food photography.  Especially the less than professional/taken on an iPhone kind.  Often, I’ll take a photo from further away and crop it down to avoid the inevitable shadows, or, like last night, I…

  • Easter 2017

    Easter 2017

    So far, this page is sadly lacking in the promised food and dog posts. I thought Easter would provide a good chance to highlight both… but neither subject cooperated for documentation. #reallife. Terrible photos or not, Easter 2017 was definitely pretty much a textbook Day in the Life of Flat 493: food, drink, couch, corgimutts, gorgeous walk,…

  • National Library Week

    National Library Week

    While true that my Facebook feed skews to the bookish on the regular, this week, there has been lots of literary fun.  Here are some of my favorites: Math Problems for English Majors [McSweeney’s] Build a Library, and We’ll Guess How Old You Are [Buzzfeed] New Book Pays Tribute To The Library Card Catalog [Morning Edition/NPR] And in…

  • Rehearsals: BOGO Free!

    One of my favorite parts of working with the Phoenix Theatre Co. is that it’s a motley crew of good performers.  The exact group may shift a bit from show to show based on schedules and character needs, but everyone is always both committed to the work and to having a good time. Case in point: last night,…

  • The Last Supper

    The Last Supper

    This morning saw the start of rehearsals for The Last Supper at Theatre Alliance, a cantata about Leonardo da Vinci’s struggle to paint his masterpiece – until an angelic muse brings Jesus and the Apostles to life for the artist, infusing the historical figures with humanity so that he could capture them in painting. We’re performing…

  • Here We Go

    Here We Go

    I had an entire week off from the theatre. Any theatre. All of the theatres. Five whole week nights. This morning’s view is pretty much exactly a summation of that week: blustery and frustrating and neither comforting nor living up at all to its spring-like promise… not in the least because of a series of ongoing…
