12 Angry Men

Now we're cooking.
We went to Theatre Southwest last night to see "12 Angry Men," partly to find out if this small theatre in Houston can put on a good play.
The jury has a verdict: yes, they can.
The actors gave us good character development, and believable mood swings. The director (Mimi Holloway) gave us good blocking, which is not so easy with a set consisting of a table and 12 chairs. I found it hard to think critically, because it was so easy to believe that I was in a jury room.

So the good news is that I have a very good (though under financed) theatre to be involved in. The bad news is that it may be a bit harder to get cast - I will have some competition for the juicy roles.

I'm in the upcoming show, Voyages, so I will at least have a chance to prove that I'm more or less reliable, and that I can remember my lines most of the time. That should help.
