the Schnoozies!


  • The Citizens of East Bunny Hop
I realise I have been remiss in one rather important detail.
Well, really, six rather important details.
The people I'm touring with. I don't have a picture of Emileena (our stage manager yet), but in the photo above, from left to right, they are:

-Ethan, our Midwestern, heart-of-gold resident skyscraper. Yes, at just under six feet, Ethan is our tallest and most male Bunny Scout.
-Michelle, a sassy, 5' even Texan girl, who plays Ruby
-Ester, who has the chillest, most dead-pan sense of humor i have ever yet encountered
(-me)
-Ben, a laid-back hippy from Santa Fe, who works the hardest in the entire show (i mean, he has nearly ten words to say!)
-Leigh, who gives off definite house-mom vibes, always has a cough drop or a Kleenex and a positive attitude. Plus, she drives fast. So I like her.

As soon as I have a picture of Emileena, I will post it. But suffice it to say that Emileena is our stage manager - the girl with the directions, the sound board and the batteries for our walkie-talkies.

The way we split up when travel is two in the cargo van, the remaining five in the 'passenger van', which is really just a cargo van with a three-seater bench in the back of the cab, and a HUGE storage space for our suitcases. As of right now, we're sort of hoping for an alternate passenger van, but if it doesn't work out, we can always build ourselves a fort back there. You know, mattress, chili lights, some tie-dye hangings. Classy plans, we make.

Anyway, tomorrow (tuesday)is our last day off for a while. On Wednesday, we hit the road again in what promises to be a marathon day, with two shows in upstate NY and then the drive to Wilkes Barre, PA.

I can't wait 'till we get to warmer states, and the coats become superfluous.
