Hot and Cold

Finally completed my ground plan and submitted it today...only two days late (sometimes I feel like I'm flying by the seat of my pants and I don't know anything, and I can't believe I'm even making this show and its all a little too overwhelming!)

School of Drama Open day today...so I sat at the info booth and started to address the mail out envelopes. Nobody has helped me,its too confusing because the mailout list are outdated and mostly missing the addresses. I went to assist Debby at the Question and Answer session and when I came back three people were just standing around. I said, did the mail out get done? They said I didn't understand the instructions, which list did you work from?

ARRRRRGH!

However, got some really positive feedback from the Arches creative residency panel on my failed proposal tonight. It turns out there were 23 applicants, 1 chosen project and four people invited for feedback, so I didn't do too badly considering my proposal was fairly last minute.
The most interesting aspect of the feedback was to focus on my own role within projects or productions, and to shed the language of the course...(this was a little unclear, because they largely liked my writing style but disliked task etc. They seemed to think that the language would become obselete after I graduated and that I just needed to be careful how I described my projects and why I wanted to commit to reworking something that was essentially finished)

Last of the third year showings tonight, I am looking forward to it.
Now I just got to sort out when I'm showing what to whom.
