Very strange update on THE KING AND I

Rose Cutuli Wray, our abundantly effervescent director for Theatre Guild of Rockingham County's production of The King and I, has just informed me that in addition to playing Phra Alack (the King's secretary), that I have been given another role as well.

From her e-mail...

Also you have been chosen to be one of our 5 ballet ninja's for Small House of Uncle Thomas. No dancing is necessary, but you will be doing numerous things in the ballet.

A "ballet ninja".

A "ballet ninja"?!

What the...?!?!?

I have no idea what this means exactly, and with a name like "ballet ninja" I'm rather scared to contemplate upon it.

But hey, this is art. The potential silliness is temporary but the show is forever!
