Wednesday, April 17, 2002 Limericks and Theatre Journals The theatre dept. here is obsessed with the idea of journals, so I had to write one when I ran crew for the opera and one for the musical (which I just wrote). Since I had the same professor for both "classes," I asked for feedback on my first journal. Mark asked for "more insight, more humor." Heh. He didn't know what he was getting himself into... since someone else mentioned that the funniest journal he'd read was written as haikus (is haiku the plural of haiku?) I decided to write limericks (since I'm really not that funny--I just laugh at myself all the time). Anyway, I'll post a couple for you to read, though they probably won't make any sense to someone who wasn't around (disclaimer: I know they're not that good, I'm just amused that I wrote the whole journal like this). There was a cool girl from Forest Who wanted to act like a tourist So she joined the deck crew With the tags Katie drew And said hi as her name was chorused. GAM torches have a tiny flame But the tech kids couldn’t be blamed The marshal said one And now that is done Otherwise actors could get maimed. Opening night, check lights before show Christian thinks, “Good thing we’re not slow” Stand with red fire ‘Cause it could be dire If the theatre burned down in a glow. Lots of foil and tape could fall down And though it doesn’t weigh a pound Get out the Rover Send Christian right over And make sure he gets back to the ground. Auditioned for Hamlet this morning Made sure I wouldn’t be snoring Missing the formal And the night goes as normal Must say the party was boring. ^ Top | 6:15 AM | | |
