I finally got around to posting photos from the play I directed in Bedlam's 10-Minute Play Festival. Take a look!

Photos of me in the 10-minute play festival are here. These are from Deepest Desire. I'm the pirate and the bear on the bicycle. The ones from the other play aren't up yet.

I just finished running the light board at Bedlam's Queer Solstice Romp. I had fun. They did two 5-minute movies: Pandora's Fury, the fire show they just ran, and all 5 seasons of The L Word. This is the first romp I've attended where nobody from the audience threw beer cans at the performers. What's up with that?

Two down, two to go. I've been having a blast in the Bedlam play festival. My quick costume change is still a little daunting but with the help of the stage manager and a castmate, it's gone smoothly thus far. I'm happy to have achieved my goal of drinking a beer in a play at Bedlam! Sometimes it's good to have goals that are easy to attain. ( Read more... )

They have a daily afternoon social between 4-7 with food and drink specials and of course music playing in the background. I was upstairs by myself working ( Read more... )

Last Sunday I pushed myself far out of my comfort zone and into auditions at Bedlam for their annual Community 10 Minute Play Festival. I'd never been to a real audition before. The one at St. Kate's was a simple script reading and I knew everyone in the room. I'd taken classes with most of them. We're performing only once and the audience is ( Read more... )

The excitement's over. All the people in the house finally came out; there were no shots fired. I counted nine squad cars on the street between my house and the corner. There were probably more in the alley and around the corner ( Read more... )
