Day 75 VLOG CLICK HERE!
Met Josh Groban at work today and since I had just done Joseph in concert we had something to talk about. He thanked me for my participation and said they had raised a lot of money for kids in the arts.
One of my tables was this late 50's to early 60's caucasian woman who had giant fake boobs, hollywood glam makeup and hair and a super pink fuzzy jacket that looked like a muppet had been sacrificed. I thought to myself "Oh geez here come crazy." But I couldn't have been more wrong. She was so sweet and humble even when I dropped off the wrong check, paid, and tipped generously. I had to walk back over, not yet realizing my mistake and inquire as to why she left the check 3 dollars short. My mistake. The point is that just because they look "Hollywood" doesnt mean that act Hollywood. Which is also true and, in my opinion, even sadder in reverse, those people that think because they booked a couple of guest stars and their meter jumped 100,000 points that they are the shit. That's right. They are. Shit. Keep it humble, friends.
Angela Landis, I met during my time at 3 of a Kind theater company. I love that she has kept me on her speed dial and in her email contacts for purposes such as this table read tonight of "Saved by the Titanic." I hadn't had a chance to read it yet and I almost like that better because I too am along for the ride. She had remembered my tenaciousness for the F-word in the last short play I did so she recommended me to play the hot headed bombing dropping director in the piece. I had a blast. The character is full of sarcastic rants and verbal ambushes. My kind of character. Thank you!
Until tomorrow!
