Ingnoring the older Child
Hey there sport fans.
It may seem to you all that I have ignored this blog for my newer blogs, (see them at the right in my list). Nothing can be further from the truth. So lets talk about the Theatre
Yes, lets talk about my good fortune of late. I have three current/so to be projects going on right now.
I have been picked up to stage manage for Theatre Garden. They are a fairly young TYA company. I imagine that this is what Pushcart Players were like 20 or so years ago. They have just gone AEA so, some of the rules and all are changing how they do business. They have also approached me about a more administrative role for them in the fall. Essentially doing the job that Geoff Morris does over at PP. Oddly enough, the show is very similar in tone, and content to 3 Cheers for America the first show I did with Pushcart in 97. The show even has a Pushcart Peddler.
My other current project is an Industrial Concert for the Metropolitan Club, its another of Tom Tierney's Twinsun Music concerts. It has quite a cast, most of the folks here have a more than one Broadway credit and/or 1st National tour on their resumes. Some of them are folks I have worked with before too! Roger De Witt and I did Something's Afoot at the Lycian Centre back in 98 together! and Timothy Shew was in the last industrial project I worked on with Tom Tierney, back in 03. I did a lot of the scheduling for the auditions, and managed to sneak as many Wolverines in the audition as I could. No I am just joking, it just seemed like it. There were at least7 or 8 UM Alumni there tho. There were even a few from my days at UM, including the amazing Susan Owen, someone I hadn't thought of for years, but wow the crush I had on her senior year. I doubt she ever knew (I think I am safe from her reading this (see even when I want to focus on professional matters, I have to bring in affairs of the heart, LOL)) She is in the current understudy to Christine on Broadway.
Speaking of crushes, you should see the women in this show, All of them beautiful, lots of redheads (which you all know are my weakness) and one brunette in particular that is just a vision to watch. (more on this in my other Blog soon, so don't forget to check it out) It is a shame that only about 100 people are going to ever see this group perform this in concert. They are incredibly talented and are going to look amazing in costume, doing this full out.
And of course I am part time prep for WV right now, had a very productive evening talking schedules with Mr. Fisher. I hope we can have a summer with out giving Guil a coronary or a stroke from some minor argument.
OK I need to go deal with so many schedules and crap, so I will leave it at that.
looking forward to a busy summer. Watch this space for some news I haven't announced in over 15 years!
