I am one of the primary caregivers to my Grandmother, the other caregiver being my mother, we have recently spent four weeks with her in the hospital. Plus two weeks in our care at home from a precceeding week long hospital trip. Does that account for all my time? I believe so.
Oh.... I also am in a dramatic play in our little theatre. This is actually my reason for blogging tonight. Ever read, saw, or heard of One Flew Over the Cuckcoo's Nest?? Well I am one of the four female roles in this seventeen character cast. I play Candy Starr..... can anyone guess what her role is???? yes you there front row..... did you say whore? Well your quite close!!!! I am labeled as a "Party Girl"!!!! Now my role is the supporting actress, and is very loving to all males she meets. The jist of the show is about this man MacMurphy, who isnt really insane, and is escaping the work farm by being place in the mental instution ran by Nurse Ratched. Nurse Ratched is a bitch. She has everyone quivering at her beck and call. That is until MacMurphy comes around and stands up to her. He gives the patients, who are all men mind you, the actual support they need to become better people.
I have to say that this is the best production I have ever been involoved in. And I have been in many a play. the whole cast becomes their roles instead of just acting. I have never seen a show done to this much of professional level with all volunteers! I love being there and enjoy the company of my fellow cast members to no end.
So If you are in the area, Look us up we run for one more weekend!! Lakeland Cultral Arts Center!!!
until the fates let us,
ali :)
