I think there are appropriate times in which for me to be nostalgic about the Barn Playhouse without being too overly obsessed about it.. right now would be a good time It only seems right anyway.
At this time two years ago I was well in to performances of Annie Get Your Gun. For the record I have never had so much fun working on a show as I did when I worked on that show. It is my most fondest memory of that whole entire summer at the Barn and will continue to be. I miss it every once in awhile especially right now. Even though I had an ensemble role and was only on stage for three scenes throughout the whole show I felt like I was part of a family. I do not think a lot of my friends from NLBP ever really realized how much Annie Get Your Gun really meant to me,but it did. It really truly did mean a lot. It was really on of the best experiences I've ever had working on a play because working with everyone else involved really taught me a lot about what it takes to put on a show ( a new perspective i never learned because i mostly did tech work and did not have a lot of acting experience before coming to the Barn) and most of it it was an opportunity for me to grow into myself as a performer. I really truly admire everyone who was in that show with me because they really helped me to challenge myself as a performer.
NLBP 07 I LOVE YOU GUYS so so so much!!!
Love Janine
I would just like to add that I think it is incredibly really eerie how I hit the nail on the head with predicting that people from my intern company would be doing amazing things since we left the Barn Playhouse. I watched the Our Time video from Just Desserts Cabaret the other day and that song epitomizes how talented I thought everyone in my intern company was and how I thought they would be going places... potentially broadway shows or the like after the Barn. While some people may not be on Broadway yet I have been in touch with a few of them recently and have found out that they are in either off broadway or touring shows. :)
