Drama lies in extreme exaggeration of the feelings, an exaggeration that dislocates flat everyday reality.

POPPED MY CHERRY!

Well I held out for as long as I could, but here I am, blogging. This is my very very first blog so I'm not exactly sure on what to talk about........... sooo do you come here often? Ok enough about that! My name is Nick and I'm what you would describe as a college theatre dork...hence the name of my blog! I LOVE MUSIC THEATRE and my ipod consists of about 90% of songs from musicals :) I want to use this blog to tell everyone about all the exciting theatre things i find around the cactus or just to over glorify my own lame achievements if anyone is in Melbourne i will be posting the shows I'm in or shows that my friends are in! but basically the only reason i have this blog is so i can crap on about stuff no one wants to hear about and maybe interest one or two people on my view of the cosmos :) ill tell you a little about myself..... i am currently studying science/performing arts at Monash University, i live in Melbourne, which i love contrary to popular belief, i enjoy photography and singing and acting.....fancy that! i have a girlfriend called Elly, who i love dearly and a bestie called Victoria, who i also love dearly, both put up with my random breaking into song and dance..and are known on the odd occasion to join in! Anyway i think thats enough for now but i will post again as soon as i have a free moment i will also leave a inspirational theatre quote at the end of every post because i fell it brings a touching feel to my blogs........yea right.... anyway heres number 1!

I think theater ought to be theatrical ... you know, shuffling the pack in different ways so that it's-- there's always some
kind of ambush involved in the experience. You're being ambushed by an unexpected word,
or by an elephant falling out of the cupboard, whatever it is.
