A Tea Party Is In Order

Words cannot express how infinitely happy I am at the moment. Casting for my homeschool drama group was on Friday, and the two plays that our director has chosen are absolutely phenomenal:
Alice in Wonderland
and... Pride and Prejudice!

Auditions were so much fun, albeit nerve wracking when it came time to be given roles. =) I am so happy to say that I have been cast in P&P...as Elizabeth Bennet!! A dream come true, to be sure. And what's more, I get to act alongside some of my great friends. Hayden is going to be playing Mrs. Bennet, my dear mama. Check out her blog here. She has some pretty amazing stuff to say. =) Emily, her sister, gets to be my beloved sister, Jane. <3
Overall, I'm extremely excited to be in the company of so many amazing people. =) The play would not be nearly as epic were it not for them. Exciting, right? To say the least. =D Both are going to be absolutely wonderful productions, and the casts of each are some enormously talented people.
I've only known about Pride and Prejudice for about 4 years now, so unfortunately I'm not one of those girls who has had a love for it since the age of 3, but let me tell you, I've fallen in love with the characters and the story ever since then, and it is such a great privilege to be given the opportunity to be in it! =) I cannot wait to start up practice again in January!

    Don't worry, I have only been a P&P fan for about five years, so I'm not that much ahead of you :)

    Jessica: Isn't it wonderful?? Jane Austen wrote such amazing literature! =)
    Hayden: My dear mama, your poor nerves have a right to be borderline hysterical in this case. I know mine are close behind... =D This has got be one of the most amazing things I have ever done! I cannot wait to get together and run lines with you and Emily! Maybe we need to plan that soon. =)
    Emily: My lovely sister, 2 months if far too long to not see you! We must remedy that very quickly, dear, or else I shall despair and go into a fit of nerves as mother is wont to do. =D We are going to have a enormous amount of fun together!
