Catching up

I saw a play that was required of us to go see. This was a few weeks ago, but I forgot to blog about it then. So, I will blog about it now. This play was a make-up for Rhinoceros. I believe it was called "Harmony." The play appeared to be about some sort of love triangle. It felt like a window into a foreign world with the pure and virginal ideals of the female protagonist. This young woman seemed shocked, traumatized by a man that behaved "badly." Perhaps I am a bit jaded, but I'd like to walk into that play and say "get used to it."
The play was okay. I wouldn't necessarily want to see it again, but I'm glad I experienced that aspect of W&M student culture.
Preparing for Montage is going okay. Devyn and I met at the end of last week to practice our lines and we are meeting in the library again tomorrow. I find that the quick lines are easier to memorize. That sounds obvious, but what I mean is that I could remember 500 lines if they were divided into one liners and I received cues every other line from Devyn or my acting partner. However, trying to remember 10-20 lines (a monologue, or a long paragraph) is so much more difficult. I find that when our practices get interrupted, it is because we have reached that point in the script where one of us has an extensive amount to say.
I want to be comfortable with the memorization of the lines, and learn them like the back of my hand, to be able to concentrate on the delivery of the line. When I am "reaching" for a line, it screws everything up. We have a funny scene and I don't want to ruin the humor of it by awkwardly pausing every other second to try to remember my line.
