So last weekend I decided to try out for a play at a small community theater here in town. I wasn’t familiar with the show but the outline looked like there were a couple of small character roles that I used to do so well. I was hoping to ease my way back into theatre after an almost 15 year hiatus.
Talked to the director on the phone last night and she wants me to play the title role.
I’m still in “Holy Crap” mode. More later.




Ummm…. did you forget to tell us the name of the play? Or is that part of the “more later”?
Congratulations!

Well, whatever it is - break a leg, Timmer!
Umm, in the theatric sense. Not the literal sense.

It’s a play called “The Trial of Ebenezer Scrooge.” One year after “A Christmas Carol” Scrooge takes Marley and the three ghosts of Christmas to court for damages. It is, as my wife is wont to say, “A hoot.”
“Break a leg” is the proper way to wish good fortune.
Note to self, stock up on Ginkgo Baloba.

Hey Timmer, congrats. Was it typecasting?
