later snipe.

i know this is really really shitty, i know, but i told the dumb director "do you have a designer you like working with? i won't be offended if you need to find someone else".
i will hate losing the cash, but i can tighten the purse strings and submit milage reimbursement and suck it the fuck up because i'm not making a spiderweb or painting lines on furniture.
aspects to two design proposals by the dipshit that i don't even know i could convey to people without heavy sighing and eyerolls and the groundplan of the miniscule stage.
i'm not saying i know everything...i'm just saying, i know a lot. i have enough experience in working in a vast cross section of tiny spaces on a shoe string budget to know what he's after is going to look dumb and not thought through well.
i don't like building things "just because". it can't look like a mistake. it needs to have purpose and reason and proportions.
even if it's a bad choice, if it's committed and it goes with everything else, than fine.

what he should do is cut his loses and do it black box. really bare bones. but he wants an entire fully flushed out design.
on a space that isn't even 20' wide by 13' deep. at it's biggest.
and that's everything. acting space, wing space. e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g.

thank god i'll be in chicago when this shit it hitting the fan.

the side of my left hand is smudged with ink from writing out a bunch of anne sexton poems as love letters from hamlet to ophelia.
that's a joke that never gets old to me.
i wonder if the actors will read them.
if they'll know it's anne sexton.

i miss writing love letters to real people.
