Thoughts on Theater
Ok folks, here is a thought when it comes to local theater. I love it. I want to do lots of productions. But here’s the deal: I can’t afford to spend lots of money driving to a lot of rehearsals if I’m not being paid, not even a little. It’s the principal of the thing. Actually, no. It’s simple economics.
Example: A certain theater company wants me for various roles. I enjoy working with them. I enjoy the space. I enjoy the foothills. But it costs me anywhere from $5-$10 per rehearsal or performance to travel to/from the venue.

Amusing cross-lingualism
I just realized “bullshit” rhymes in Spanish: “caca de vaca”
Sometimes I amuse even myself.
Patience is a Virtue
“Actors have short attention spans.”
This was an observation related to me by the son of the producer of my last show.
Hello! Over here! Still typing!
Good. Now that I still have your attention, may I comment on this observation? No? Hello? Hello?! Please stop playing with your phone. Is the text message that urgent? Oh, it’s from your friend. I see. Go ahead. I’ll wait.

Done? Good. Anyway, continuing on where I left… no, put the remote down. Yes, I realize my TV system is cool. I built it.
