Been a while...

In between the last few months since I have posted has been a crazy wild ride. I've spent most of my time with Louis which is very good. It is good because he's still not sick to death of me yet. We have had wonderful nights talking and he's been teaching me how to analyze text as an actor. I have learned the 3 addresses in a monologue. More people continue to come to me for Technical Theatrical work, which is alright, but I'm learning to say no when they offer $0. I'm also learning to be a Technical Director and have even gotten my Theatre and Film Studio Fireguard license!!! Yea for me!!! Vivian will save you all in the event of a fire. Louis and I make a great team. When Louis is unable to be present, I take over, and not fuck up. Things are working out wonderfully so far.

Say Your Prayers, Mug! was an awesome play and if you missed it, then that's your bad luck. Most people probably wouldn't have been able to get in anyway since a good majority of the nights the house was completely full. Many people laughed...some people got really into it and took it too seriously, but all in all, it was well written, well acted, well designed, and well directed. Kudos to Playwright and Director Todd Michaels. I had a wonderful blast and I hope to work with him again in the future.

I'm still going to meetings at A Company Of Players Monday nights at Shetler/Bridge Theatre. I learned a great deal about finding your light on stage, diction, vocal support, and all the goodness that comes from an experienced man in professional NY theatre of the last 30 years.

I'm not sure how this winter will fare. I'll still be office temping. I'll still be working for theatre during the evenings. In between I'll try to squeeze in a hug and kiss from Louis. I just need a cheap place to live.
