Bienvenue, long time no see. It’s been far too long.
I’ve kept myself busy this summer socializing and staying active. But as the summer winds down I’m feeling the pull of blogging once again.
I’ve got several posts on the burner now that I will be posting throughout the week.

About Soubrette
I am a college student in the USA working on my BFA in performance. In other words I am trying to become an actress.
For those of you not familiar with the term soubrette, I will attempt to explain. The soubrette is a stock character primarily found in operas. She tends to be a young woman and a side-kick or servant to the female lead. She is smart, sly, witty, and often protective of her friend/ companion/ employer.
Unlike the typical female lead, she is not an ingenue. Although the soubrette is not necessarily homely or undesirable, she relies on her wit and intellect rater than her beauty or position.
In my life I have often played the role of the soubrette. But I am not a stock character and life is not Don Giovanni.
