So I and roomie wrote this play called Bad Hamlet, which is kind of like Sita Sings the Blues meets Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead with some genderqueerness thrown on top. We have three male Hamlets -- Quarto 1, Quarto 2, and Folio -- three female Hamlets -- Sarah Bernhardt, Leea Klemola, and Charlotte Charke -- and two Ophelias, one male and one female. (Also Harold Bloom, Laura Mulvey, and G. E. Lessing, commenting on the texts. Anway.)

It's a great play, and it's going to be awesome -- it goes up Saturday afternoon.

Problem is, our male Ophelia dropped out via text message at the beginning of the first rehearsal, and we haven't yet found a replacement. And that is stressful as fuck, because it's an important role.

Um, this is not really apropos of anything besides venting about the impossibility of finding an actor. Aaaaargh.

ETA: WE FOUND ONE.
