Expecting the Unexpected

by Jenna Kantor

Wow. Talk about never knowing when something truly awesome will come my way! I got a call in the middle of “daddy and daughter day” from a producer offering me “All Shook Up” at the Dutch Apple in Lancaster, PA. Isn’t that awesome?! I get to work at a theatre I enjoy, people I enjoy, and still be able to attend United Professional Theatre Auditions in Memphis, TN. I love it! I have to check out plane flights this weekend because I have to move things around now. It is all possible. The insanity is fabulous. I love being on my toes like this and I am so freakin grateful. I have been missing the stage. I’ll have a lot of work to do because I will be understudying the lead, who is played by a wonderful girl who I’ve already had the pleasure of working with in the past. Yay! If you cannot tell, I am so freakin happy. I had no idea this was going to happen, but I had a good feeling that good things were heading in my direction. It was unexpected and I am embracing it full-force.
