A few friends of mine were on the cover of the daily news today. Pictured (R to L) is Monica (Covitt), Jenna, Tema, and Rachel. Plus Jamie is right out of the frame. A real wonderful group of girls, I love them all.
Heres the part about Monica and TADW from the article.

This is the fourth year Covitt has participated in CSUN's TeenAge Drama Workshop (TADW), a six-week summer workshop produced by the university for 45 years.

In a recent rehearsal, Covitt commanded the stage in her blue-and-white checkered dress, pigtails and red glitter pumps, reading her lines with emotion and authority.

"Playing Dorothy has been so much fun. It's the best role I've ever had," she said. "I kind of act like her because I get excited about new things like she does, so I get to act like myself."

While Covitt is drawn to acting, she said her true love is singing, and she hopes to be an opera singer someday.

Whether she's acting or singing, though, Covitt said the rush of performing is the same.

"It's nerve-racking and an adrenalin rush because you're so nervous and excited in a good way," she said. "After rehearsing over and over, when everything comes together just right, it's a real feeling of accomplishment."
