During this past February I appeared in a science-fiction murder-mystery-comedy called Space Murder. The show was performed in the University of Oregon's Pocket Playhouse. I played the apathetic doctor Lilac: as a fun side note, the scientific name for the Lilac flower is "Syringa vulgaris," which seemed oddly appropriate for the character (when I pointed this out to the director, he agreed, glad for the happy coincidence).
Spoiler alert: the show was about a murder in space. The doctor, who said himself that "I'm too important to die," bit the dust (but he wasn't the first!) There were many aspects to the show that were interesting, but the fact that I wore leggings and what was essentially a dress on stage in front of audiences will always be the standout for me.
