ARGH! I be excited....

I must say how impatiently I am waiting for the new year to come.
Well, I guess part of me really hates seeing time fly by so fast.
The other part of me can't wait for January, and for the adventure of Treasure Island to commence.
I'm am all a twitter preparing for my first stab at directing, and I am uber excited to work with another children's production.
As of right now, I am reading up on the back story of the story of Treasure Island, so I can be ready with tons of fun little facts about Robert Louis Stevenson and whatnot.
I'm also looking at different costume designs and trying to figure out what an 18th century doctor would wear.

For a moment I actually considered setting the play in modern time.
HA!
Silly me.
Where is the fun in that?

I've already got my set design, prop list and character list.
I've broken down the scenes and sound cues.
Now all I need to do is get my sounds.
And cast.
And props.
And everything else that goes with a children's production.
Man, just talking about it gets me all crazy excited....
But I have to wait through this production, Playing Away.
And the next production, Little Johnny Jones.
THEN!!!
THEN my dream will come true!!!!!!!
AGH!
So excited!!!!
