Work, Rest, Play

The past week, including the weekend, has been a combination of these.

I was Working on a report for the Lego Robotics after school clubs I was teaching. Also Working on preparing for the Lego Robotics summer course I will be teaching, starting next Monday.

Rest has happened in between, a couple long walks through the Edmonton river valley, as well as social events with friends. Yesterday was Canada Day, and I went to go see Moonrise Kingdom with friends - ended up seeing Magic Mike. The change in movie plans came when the theatre couldn't get Moonrise Kingdom to play, so they gave us each 2 movie passes and told us to go watch another movie. A couple of us went to see Magic Mike, while others went to see Prometheus (which I had seen a couple weeks ago). After the movie walked through downtown to meet up with other friends to watch the fireworks.

Play; this is not necessarily the Play that is intended in the phrase: Work, Rest, Play. Here I mean my theatre play in the Edmonton Fringe. At rehearsal today we discussed aspects of promoting the play, namely using twitter. The two actresses - playing 14 year old characters - have created twitter accounts for their characters, and even referenced one for the Dr who's only mentioned. I took that one up and hope, between all I'm doing, and 2 twitter accounts now, to learn more about twitter and tweet more.

So please follow us to learn more about the 'behind the scenes' and extras of the production of The Question.
