Nine questions

Camp/conservatory, whatever it is, is so much fun and just getting funner (funner can be a word if I want it to be) every day. I can't believe we are half way done already! This means that in just as much time as it's been since our first day we will be performing Richard III! (did that sentence make any sense?)

Today was very interesting. I am now ashamed to say that I didn't know who Uta Hagen was before today (as with many of the things we have learned). This is because I haven't, sadly, done very much with drama and acting in my life. Not much time. I am planing on changing though, starting now. 

I thought our first run through when pretty well. Especially considering how Ian described it was going to be. =] I am very excited about performing this play! 
And now it's time to answer my nine questions about my 3 characters. So from here on it will get very boring (more boring then it already is).
