Being Home is Weird

Hey everyone,

The title of the post says it all.  I’m thoroughly at a loss while at home, so I’m hitting the job search hard so as maybe to distract myself from having nothing to do.  On Tuesday I go into rehearsals for “A Year With Frog and Toad” at the Maine State Music Theater, so that will be a good start to filling my time.  The roles are uncast as of yet, because it’s going to be cast internally from the cast members they have, so I will post later on roles and whatnot.  I have a lot of possible things I’m doing, but it all hinges on how well I can schedule them.  I’ve tried my hand at dishwashing at the Dogfish Cafe in downtown Portland, and hopefully that goes well and I can continue there.  I’ve applied at a few other restaurants and hotels in Portland, so now the waiting game begins.  I also will probably be doing some odds and ends jobs at Waynflete School (my old high school) for the maintenance crew, which will be fun.  All in all my summer looks a little packed jobwise.

Other things I might be doing.  My good friends Marcus and Sam Bagala, Genney Myers, and I are trying to put together a video or musical project to work on this summer, not sure what it’s going to be yet, but once I know I’ll put it up here.  Mark Bedell (founder of the Maine Academy of Staged Combat and very close friend of mine) is doing a couple projects this summer which time willing I will be helping him out on.  A continuation of “The Hunted” web miniseries as well as a National Geographic documentary.  By the way, if you are looking to do some extra work in southern maine, this documentary is looking for people, you can talk to me about it, but Kendall Cooper knows more than I do…so if you know her then track her down.

That’s about it, the quick rundown on my summer.  I’ll have updates every week or every other week this summer, so keep checking back for updates on what I’m doing.

Love to everyone,
~Ned Donovan
