By this point, I feel established at the Apollo. I have a nice little desk outside my coworkers' offices, with a computer from the medieval times and desk space. To be honest, I wish my computer weren't quite so ancient; everything takes longer and it makes it really hard to view files or run any kind of program. But oh well, there's much worse in this world to be dealt with.
Friday was my first full day (10-6) and it was exhausting but very fun. I did a lot of running papers back and forth, printing and stapling for the Open House that was the next day. But I also got some time to edit and even help write a bit of the hosts' scripts for the Open House, and that was really the best part. It was kind of nerce-wracking, considering the number of people who would be hearing and speaking those lines, but I did my best and actually got a compliment from the head of that project this week, which was REALLY gratifying.
Now we're starting another project, one slated for performance in June, and I can't wait. It has to do with African music and afrobeat musicians. A version of it was performed in Paris last year, and now they're doing it again at the Apollo. I can't wait to be involved, and it seems like I might have more to do, especially since I was asked to research all the people involved.
Well, that's all for now. I'll check in soon!
