That's right people, I have become a nun.
The proof is right here.
I am a nun in The Sound of Music.
Back when I auditioned I did not audition with a musical piece. I am not a singer. I am an actor. I was hoping for a non-singing role.
I did not get an acting part.
I got a singing part.
Yes, people, this non-singer is singing.
In Latin.
It's actually not a bad way to spend Sunday afternoons - singing hymns in Latin to God.
I am told by those listening that the nun choir sounds amazing. They sound amazing in spite of me, not because of me. I keep waiting to be booted out the door as an imposter. I am actually singing though and I feel honored to be part of a group with so many amazing voices.
We are in full blown performances now. Friday and Saturday evenings, Sunday matinees.
Oh, and you might notice that there is a maid there that has two words - well actually three because I added one. I'm doing double duty as Ursula. Because of this I actually have three costumes. More costumes than words. Other than that Latin singing.
I love singing. Really I do. My kids don't like listening.
