Sunday, I took a personal day away from the show. It was the first show I have missed since my opening night back in July. I had been planning the day for quite some time. I wanted to make a...
I finally went online to register for one of those government coupons for the digital converter box for my TV. It's not that old of a television - in terms of actual age - but still only has coaxial cable...
HOPE is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all, And sweetest in the gale is heard; And sore must be the storm That could abash the...
Well, my mini-retreat to San Francisco is going splendidly! Besides sporadically submitting myself on Actors Access and LA Casting, I've been taking a break from my business for the past two days. And now, with some down time before going...
David Lynch has signed with digital media company On Networks to make a new web series. It will be based on his book Catching the Big Fish: Meditation, Consciousness and Creativity, One caveat, don't expect a trippy Lynchesque drama, not exactly. His book, while probably trip-inspiring to some, the is about the effect of transcendental meditation on his life and the series will be the same. The Master of the twisted, Lynch, has built a name for himself investigating the surreal in a narrative story. Often confusing, his films are never short on content. In recent years, an innovator, Lynch,...
Building an acting career is a lot like saving change in a piggy bank or saving your frequent flyer miles for points. Each quarter you add, each point, is another dollar you save. It gets you closer to that trip or whatever it is you are saving for. And, you would most certainly get discouraged if you counted the money or points every day (which is probably why you have to break most piggy banks open). So you just throw in an extra nickel here and a dollar there or rack up those miles and forget about it. Hopefully you...
Lots going on lately. American Buffalo might close after only a week of performances this Sunday. Most are blaming the imbalanced stunt casting of John Leguizamo, Cedric the Entertainer, and Haley Joel Osment.... The New York Post reports that Reba McEntire may headline a Roundabout revival of Anything Goes next season. I heard Roundabout offered McEntire the role of Reno Sweeney six months ago and she turned them down and they are still planning to do the show with another star.... Tony winner John Lloyd Young (Jersey Boys) will make his film debut in a comedy called Oy Vey, My...
See the breakdown before the audition or don't see it, that is the question? A lot of the time, your agent will send you out on an audition and just give you the audition information. She may tell you that you are going out for the role of 'Mary'. She may tell you to dress casual, down-scale. That's it, sides will follow. So when you get them, you read the two paged sides for signs of recognition if for instance, it is a TV show you have never heard of. Then you spot it. Yes, it's a drama. Oh yes...
You've still got until the end of the month to submit for the Gen Art Film Festival, an event showcasing North American independent film to industry folks and film lovers in the heart of New York City.Gen Art, in its 14 year, will premiere a multi-genre slate of 14 films over seven evenings, with special red carpet screenings that put one feature and one short in the spotlight each night. These special selected works are shown to a powerful audience and gain crucial media exposure. Each evening's filmmakers are then celebrated at after-parties at the City's nightspots. All movies are...
Werewolves on the brain, that's for sure, ever since that darling good ole boy Sam Merlotte barked in his sleep and streaked through the woods of Bon Temps in the addictive "True Blood." Come to find out, our favorite barkeep...
It's beginning to look a lot like ... Colbert! Only a few days left until Emmy-winning newly-minted-song-and-dance man Stephen Colbert launches his first holiday special (10 p.m. Sunday on Comedy Central). It's appropriately dubbed "A Colbert Christmas: The Greatest Gift...
So much is riding on "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" -- too much, actually -- and we're not even talking about the reported $150 million budget. (Are Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros. sweating about this Christmas Day release?) The...
It's not every day that we run into the president of the United States. Not that one, mind you, but another really smart, heroic yet human commander-in-chief. We speak, of course, of Bill Pullman. Who didn't love him in "Independence...
We'd hoped to see "Boogie Man: The Lee Atwater Story" show up on the short list, figured for sure that "Religulous" would, and hoped "Stranded" and "Young@Heart" could somehow skirt that rule about not being eligible because they aired on...
