Below are a few pictures, one of my room, one of the living room, and one of the view of the ski slopes from our balcony. We have a great condo, I'm rooming with the other actor who came from New York City. His name is Reymundo, and we're going to get along great for the next month! Our condo has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (thanks GOODNESS I don't have to share a bathroom!!), a huge kitchen with all the pots and pans, and appliances we need, and a great living room with a big balcony and a big flat screen tv! The complex has an indoor pool and hot tub, and general laundry on the first floor (takes quarters).
The weather is not what I expected. Unfortunately it has been nothing short of a snowstorm since we got here. It's beautiful to look at but not fun to run around in. The theater is pretty tiny, seats about 65 people (which was the size of the theatre in the west village I just performed in, so I'm used to it). It's also about a 7 minute drive from our condo, so not walking distance like we were led to believe.
We are anxious to meet the two other members of the cast who are Denver locals, we have rehearsal today at 2pm (Mountain Time!).
I am jet-lagged for sure, and having a hard time breathing in this altitude. I got two migraines yesterday and kept waking up totally dehydrated, although the condo came equipped with humidifiers, which helped.
It's going to take some getting used to, and I hope this weather gets nicer, but I'm excited to get started.



Wish I was there, with you!!! Take heart...you'll get used to the altitude. Keep drinking LOTS of water - that will help with the migraines, too. And........a 7 minute drive, is considered "walking distance" in Colorado! :)
ReplyDeleteBest of luck! You're gonna do great!

Hey there - I found your blog because I was at that CRAZY Grease call back in March. I'm graduating college in June and moving to NYC to join the masses... but in any case, I really like your blog - you seem so honest and nice. A breath of fresh air. :)
