"My name is Marian. You can call me a cab." :)

If you look at all my lovely side-bar clutter, you may notice my newest addition- It says "Currently Performing In..." :) Actually, I had it up when I did Peter Pan, but NOW... The picture has changed!!! Your humble host will be playing the part of Marian Thorncraft in an upcoming High School production of "Honeymoon at Graveside Manor!" Jussayin...


Marian Thorncraft is looking forward to her honeymoon with new hubby,
Tyler. She pictures someplace romantic, secluded and cozy. No sooner have her
feet touched the ground after being carried over the threshold than she
discovers her love nest is really a one-time mortuary! Graveside Manor, as the
locals call it, has been abandoned for years, mainly due to the rumors of it
being haunted. Cozy as a bat cave, it's about as secluded as Grand Central
Station. A daffy maid shows up to clean the place and gets lost in the catacombs
behind the walls. This goes unnoticed because Tyler is too busy ducking a female
ghost with a hatchet, three high-school kids trying to set up a Halloween prank
and his wise-cracking female editor. Throw in an
absent-minded cop and the escaped lunatic he's looking for and the stage is set
for a Honeymoon at Graveside Manor. -- Much thanks to dramaticpublishing.com!

So yes, I am really quite excited about this :) As always, prayers for cast and crew are appreciated! Aaanndd... I will give further updates as they are due :) I hope you all have had a fantastical new year thus far!

Seems like a cross between a Scooby Doo episode and an Abbott and Costello spoof. Haha, I'd love to see it! It sounds like a lot of fun.

Hmm, I never watched much Scooby Doo, and I can't say I'm too familar with Abbot and Costello, but it is easily one of the most hytserical plays I've ever read =D I'm looking forward to it :)
