EMU Theatre

The title of this blog is a line from near the end of a play, 4.48 Psychosis. It is spoken by a character, a writer, who is suffering from severe depression, but who has begun responding to treatment.

Aw EMU, it's OK. I"ll never leave you again. I must have been out of my mind to think I could live without you. How could I just walk out on something that feels so right? Well, don't worry, 'cause I'm back, baby, and I ain't goin' no place.

Yes, I broke down. I auditioned for the Horrorshow. My kids will just have to go trick or treating without me (again...that doesn't make me a bad mom, does it?)

So, I hear that Horrorshow IIID still needs directors. I also hear that several EMUs are very busy preparing for the upcoming Victor Continental show (but that's kind of old news, I guess...or rather, par for the course)...so, anybody know any good jokes?

Alright, rather than rely on second-hand information (which I seem to have an abundance of, despite the fact that I'm on "hiatus"), I will, once again, attempt to showcase my web-savvy. I really have been trying to brush up when I get a spare moment or two, and am finally (sort of) feeling brave enough to try and post a link.

Hey guys,
I know we can all get bogged down with all of the work involved in putting up a production but lets remember to keep all of the positive vibes about our awsome theatre company. It is easy to dwell on the negative things associated with putting on a show like: not having a life, working with people we don't like, production details, delays, etc. but the positive aspects of our company far outweigh the negative ones.

Um...ok...an EMU-themed blog entry...C'MON, it can't be that difficult.
Jeez, it's really hard to know what to write about when you've, intentionally, put yourself out of the loop.
Well, there's the "Oily, oily oxen sheen" post-mortem, tonight at the Sorrels'...any takers?
There's also "Felt-a-palooza" at the Granada (not strictly EMU-related, although there's certainly been a lot of cross-pollenation between the two groups)
