First and foremost results from auditions:
So I got into Hamlet. However not as Rosencrantz or Guildenstern. And not as Laertes either. I'm playing a bunch of small roles (if I remember correctly Luciano, Reynaldo, Player Prologue, and a Priest). But I think this will give me a chance to show people what I can do with the language. As my dear friend always says "There are no small parts, just small actors." And while that may seem like a pretty cliche aphorism, I found it's true. I got a lot of compliments on the very small role I played in Battle of the Bard. A 20 minute show where I'm sure I had 10 lines or less.
I will make something of this fantastic opportunity. I will enamor directors to me.

In other news I am part of the most amazing show ever. It's called Lease and it's an improvised musical. It's sort of based on Rent, so at the top show we get a suggestion of an afflicition that can affect an entire community (not AIDS) and something iconic to Seattle (not the Space Needle). The music is amazing and everyone in the cast is fantastic. I can't remember the last time I was this excited for and proud of a show. I have nothing but the highest remarks. Here's the website: http://www.wingitpresents.com/lease/. There you can find trailers, dates, times, bios, photos, the whole enchilada.
I am so damn proud of this show. See it if you know what's good for you.
