you have to realize that i am not an arrogant person. i'm not cocky. i don't usually think i'm better than other people. in fact, sometimes i think quite the opposite, which is actually a form of pride because you're still thinking more about yourself than you should... humility doesn't equal self-deprecation - it's having the correct/honest/accurate/truthful view of yourself. arrogance is bad, but confidence is good. and knowing who you are and what you're cabable of is even better. so, it is with the utmost humility that i say, I ROCK. :) just kidding. but seriously, i'm saying all this because i want to tell you about the newspapers' review of The Cover of Life > it was wonderful!! and i'm so genuinely honored and excited by what they said about my performance. i don't do any of this for 'fame' or to get people to flatter me - i do it because i love it, and i hope that i'm good and that i can impact people's emotions or lives through my performance. anyway, oh, can i please share this? it makes me so happy...
"Stephanie DeChant is exceptional as the third wife, Sybil, a 'modern' Southern belle who chafes at the small-town ways of her colleagues. DeChant is absolutely volatile in this fiery role, steaming up the stage in one interlude and boiling over with rage in another." (Vindicator)
"DeChant also is incredible... She has an amazing stage presence and brings a sexiness with her every time she makes an entrance." (Tribune Chronicle)
mm! who knew, right? i'm exceptionally sexy and volatile... :) yeah, i know you wish you had a piece of this hottness. i think saturday night was my best overall performance so far, which is funny because that night i was the most nervous. the reviews were done on friday night. and today at the matinee this little old lady told me i could be on broadway. haha... anyway, opening weekend went well, and now i get a little 2 day break before our wednesday package house (which happens to be on my birthday) and i'm excited because i washed my hair and it feels so nice. (i didn't wash it for 4 days because of the 40s style... kinda like method acting, i guess!) you've got 2 more weekends to come see this play, and tell me if what the reviewers said is true or not!
Love, Your Sexy Baby

Oh, I knew you would be fantastic. I've seen you act before. :) And I'm glad you're finally getting some of the recognition you deserve!
Unfortunately, I will not be able to make it out to Ohio to see you rock the stage... Which saddens me, because I like watching people I know bring down the house.
