I have just started this camp I have done each year that is with my old middle school drama director where he leads a group of 20-30 people during one week in learning a certain he chooses or writes. This year however, I have started as a counselor, only 15 years old.

There are 3 sessions, each with a different age group, and I am helping out with the oldest group (13-18). Luckily, there isn't anyone more than a month older than me (and if they are, I am taller, and probably more experienced acting-wise).

This year, we are doing an Alice in Wonderland production with some music written Don (the director) that was surprisingly better than I expected. He usually takes plays, and "Donifies" them which pretty much means he makes them as crazy and different from the original as possible. As you can imagine, Alice in Wonderland (already an acid trip) is going to be a very interesting play to watch because the animated movie was, well, animated… and we aren't. Wish us luck. Don and I are the only backstage crew because everyone else is IN the play so we will have the big job of being the crew as well as assisting with anything that isn't onstage. Unless there is a scene change, then we need to work onstage too.

Well, we will be touring around Vermont (where I live) and performing this play probably about 13 times this year and a few more next year. He likes to squeeze as much as he can out of every play he does, but he's awesome.

Thanks for reading this random blog, but I have nothing else to do, maybe I'll work on my sudoku…
