Post-Rehearsal Recovery

It's okay, I already know I'm an idiot.

This is a picture of:
a) A modeling shot from my Diet Coke ad.
b) An extremely sexy and handsome man.
c) Me being an idiot.
d) How I choose to relax after a rehearsal.

If you chose b, c, and d, then you would be correct. I was in fact enjoying my return fromrehearsal in New Canaan by having a nice cold diet coke. By the way, just for the record, I nailed it at the rehearsal today (as if I am capable of anything less). Apparently I am amazingly skilled at playing an ass. By ass, of course, I mean donkey...come on, I'm a pretty nice decent guy...which is the opposite of an ass.

On that note, I somehow have gotten myself type-casted up in Connecticut, which I don't mind, but none-the-less I think maybe says something about myself. I started by playing the Master in Con Amore, in which I wore this purple old-school suit and seduced the a girl. Once they added the purple top hat, though, in my eyes it turned to more of a creepy dude seducing his chick. I tried my best to mix cute with the inherent creepiness, but not sure it worked. Next of course was a couple of Ballcrackers (or in laymen terms, the Nutcracker) where I play a giant rat, a sleezy (although suave) Spanish dude, and a gigantic women (Mother Ginger). On a side note, my young girls I dance with as Mother Ginger have renamed me as the "mommy." My one saving grace was a Frank Sinatra number where I played a debonair dude in a tux dancing with a beautiful ballet-chick in a very nicely choreographed duet. I say saving grace because currently I am playing a donkey. Although I will admit it is by far one of my most fun roles so far. Hmm...not sure what this all means.

However, I digress from what I started talking about. Oh, explaining the answer to what the picture is. Let us just leave it with I am of course a sexy and handsome dude, but I think probably what you are most likely thinking is that I am just an idiot. I of course will not deny this. I have no real long-term future plans to grow up or mature.
