rings of deception
For Macro Mondays theme "Deception". More of my many rings, what can I say? I love rings though I only ever wear my wedding rings!!
These are rings I bought for myself to be used in a play all about deception. When I was in college, I was in an American College Theatre Festival production of "Six Degrees Of Separation" by John Gaure. Unfortunately, I didn't get to play Ouisa Kittredge (the main "meaty" character) but I was her friend Kitty. Kitty was married to Larkin and they had one son. Their marriage, however, was not a happy one and Kitty was having an affair with a lawyer she knew. A very sticky situation inside a very sticky story!! Lots of deception going on!!
I had great fun going shopping with the costume designer and trying on all kinds of clothes that I, Mary Ann, would never in a million years wear!! When I asked her about my wedding ring, she said, to just wear something, no one will notice. But I would notice, I had to be a completely different person during that play and nothing I owned was right for my character. So I went to WalMart!! HA!!! I got these 2 cubic zirconia rings to try with the costume. I ended up wearing the contemporary gold one. Before the show started, I had to enter with the audience. On opening night, I walked to my seat passing my entire family and sitting only one row in front of them. Not one of them recognized me!! It was one of the most fantastic feelings I have ever had!! When I walked onstage to deliver my first line, I heard my mother gasp. It was a great show, and I enjoyed every single performance!!! I was nominated for an Irene Ryan scholarship for my portrayal of Kitty and got to travel to Arizona to compete for it! Good times...
Long winded again!!
