Joe Tracini's Coming of Age Diary #2
Tony's Stupid Comment of The Week
This week, he was rehearsing a joke with a spirit level, and wasn't entirely sure what a spirit level was. After a lengthy explanation of how they are generally used on building sites and the like, he hastily replied, "Yea, but what spirits do they measure?". Ah, Tony.
Anyway, it's been a glorious few weeks on the Coming of Age set! We went on location in the metropolis that is Watford for a week, which is always fun! Doing stunts like falling off the top of a car were particularly enjoyable/absolutely-crapped-myself.
We've also completed Episode One, which went really well! I had a ventriloquists doll of myself for the whole episode, which was a bloody nightmare, and I now understand why Keith Harris is so pissed off all the time (for anybody born after the 70's, Keith Harris was a ventriloquist with a puppet of a duck named Orville. He wasn't very good, but incredibly had a Number One hit with I Wish I Could Fly. Now don't say I never tell you anything interesting).
Rehearsals for Episode Two are well underway, and it's looking great! We also have some fantastic guest artists this year, including Geraldine McNulty, Miriam Margolyes, and Dave Lamb, who you probably know as the voiceover guy on Come Dine With Me!
Well, I'm off to sleep, as this acting lark is bloody hard. Take care crazy people x
