Feast or Famine
Looks like it's either with me these days. So I'll take the feast when I can get it. Just had a couple of work opportunities over the weekend (more info later,) and I've begun taking a class in Acting For The Camera out of the Purple Rose Theatre in Chelsea. So, while no actual $$$ will be coming in for another month, the work is beginning to come in slowly, but surely. Fingers crossed.

Performance Calender
For those of you who haven't noticed, I've added a performance calender to the blog. It directly links to my google calender, and will show current performance info (dates, roles, directions - if possible.)
As you can see, sadly, it's a lonely little calender at present (I.E. no dates) ... poor calender.
BUT ... if you use the little scroll arrows in the upper left, you'll see that June, July and August are just chock full O' goodies.
Hooray for employment! It doth make the world go 'round. And won't come soon enough!

Off the grid
(heavy sigh)
Back in the doldrums again ... but only temporarily. In reference to my most recent posting about the print ad procurement ... well ... no sooner had I snagged it (which would have been a great victory for overweight fella's everywhere,) then I got a call from my talent agency saying that I had LOST it! Not because they went a different route (I.E. using another overweight guy) but by simply scrapping the project. ARRRGGGGHHHH!
So ... I have SOME things to do, but basically I am going off the grid, so to speak, until the summer starts. I am taking a class on acting in front of the camera at the Purple Rose, and am still being sent out on auditions.
In my copious free time, I need to explore the other talent agencies in the area as well, just to see who is willing to send me out on things. And ... depending on how upcoming michigan auditions go, it may be time to pack up and head elsewhere.
I am employed for the summer, THANK GOD! I'll be spending my 15th summer in Holland, MI at the Hope Summer Repertory Theatre, taking on the roles of General Harrison Howell in Kiss Me Kate, and Froggy in The Foreigner. And things are looking favorable for the filming of more episodes of Come On Over, the children's TV show in which I portray the antagonist-of-sorts, the curmudgeonly next-door-neighbor, Mr. Flabbinjaw.
... and the main character's housecat.
