Wow! It’s October. I am pretty sure I lost a couple of months somehow. To recap: Just Bee was hard work, but a complete success and has recently been nominated for several B. Iden Payne awards along with Greeks Alive, and Cinderella and the Beanstalk. Fort Hood has again put our contracts on hold. I have retired from my short career as a stand-up comic. In the Shadow has been submitted to Sundance Film Festival. And that should bring us up to speed.
Now for the present. I have recently landed myself some industrial work with a few different companies. These are coveted jobs among young actors. They are flexible, steady, well-paying jobs. They are my bread and butter!
I have also been cast in Breaking String Theatre’s Flying. We will be workshopping this show for the next couple of months and then it will run in late January. I am very, very excited about this show. It’s an all star cast and a fantastic theatre company. I feel quite privileged to be a part of it.
Tomorrow Pollyanna Theatre Company begins our tour of Greeks Alive. This is going to be a challenging tour as we have several different characters and a ridiculous amount of props, not mention puppets. Good thing I like a challenge!
I think that’s all for now, aside from boring business junk. I just had some new headshots taken with the fabulous Adam Moroz, so those should be uploaded to my photos in the next couple of weeks. Soon I will be recording harmony vocals on Graham Weber’s new album Women.
