Hey, thanks for asking.

It was interesting. The script was pretty crazy, about muzak producers and based around the song "Cruisin'". The only thing about these things is that it seems like a lot of actors, if not given four weeks to flesh out a character, they immediately decide to heinously overact instead. When I'm an audience member, I tend to find things much funnier if the character saying outrageous things believes them 100%. I was the only person in my cast who felt that way, so things clashed a bit.

I'm really glad I did it though. It was amazing to have a complete performance of a play that didn't exist 24 hours before. I don't know if I'll do it again, but it was definitely an experience to learn from.
