Reading List

So, I'm currently trying to find all my books for CMU. I thought this would be the easiest thing, but OH WAS I WRONG! These books are plays and text books that we'll be analyzing in Dramatic Literature, Styles, and Audition. Some of them, I can barely contain myself over... like A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE. One of my favorite plays, if you haven't read it here's all the encouragement you need:
NEED I SAY MORE, LADIES?! GAH, it is the best play. I will probably cry everyday when we analyze it. Other than that, I'm really looking forward to reading Lysistrata (from what I can tell it's "Down with Love" done ancient Greek style, only instead of Women's rights... it's to end the Polynesian War!) We're also reading I Am My Own Wife (about transsexuals, should be hott) and Fefu & Her Friends (1930's women killers!) They should all be wonderful, I can't wait to tell you all what they're actually about, instead of my interpretations of the summaries.

Our other books are "Audition" which I couldn't be happier about. It's all on Shurtleff's theory, which is really high on my list. A teacher of mine from Interlochen worked with Shurtleff, and I loved her lessons on his 12 Guideposts. So I'm very excited to delve further into those. Then "Shakespeare's Words" for Styles. Styles will be very exciting. It's about approaching literature based upon the style of it's writer. SO EXCITED!

CONFLICT: These books don't exist. They are either out of stock or there are millions of versions, and I am worried I will get the wrong one. Oh well, I'm sure my current interpretations will be great. For sure.

Charlie is about to come home; that should be some fun times.
NOVEL COMPLETE.
