Told a friend I was digging holes for the future, and he responded, "sooner or later you'll hit water." Great, so I'll drown down there.
I spent today looking for theatre work. This is the time of year all the summer stock jobs start to come up, and it turns out regional theatres and companies post more now, too. I'm trying to decide whether or not to entertain the thought of full time work elsewhere.
I will, in spite of my better judgement, apply for the 7 week position in a city two hours away, because it's a professional Equity house and they're hiring an assistant director and assistant stage manager. I'd like the professional credit on the resume, even if I could make more working my current job for that same period of time.
There's a fringe festival I've been invited to. In what capacity, I don't know, so I say invited in case that's really what it means, "come up and hang out and watch our show," because I don't think they can legally pay me or officially involve me. It would start immediately after the 7 week job ends.
Several of these postings are for out of state. And if I apply, what if I get one? It feels unlikely, because of the difficulty I've had getting a job here, but, what if it should happen? I'd have to quit two jobs I won't have had for six months, but it will be to move out of state.
And then there's the house. Oh, the house.
