( More about “Punch-Drunk Love”... (probably spoilers, so skip this one, if you don't wanna read 'em yet) )

Yesterday I was looking through the labels I got from Artemis, and noticed a lot of familiar names; some of them are people who were in shows with me, a number of them were people who actually auditioned or sent in headshots for Dik and Jayne.

One of them was Evan Beskin, who played Ving in my play Eskimo down in FLA. I don't know how old Artemis ( Read more... )

To kill time in the city between work and Mickey's party, I wandered around in the 34th St area, and found a "Record Explosion" to while away an hour or so. I found The Best of Ike and Tina Turner for $5.99 (which I've been meaning to get for a while, since Carlos has only ever heard the Celine Dion version of "River Deep, Mountain High", and that ( Read more... )

Dinner With the MommelehI met mom at Penn Station when her Acela Train got in. We dropped off her stuff in her jeep, then we took the subway up to the TKTS booth to see what we could see. There were a few things, but the line was still long, and we didn't really care, so we decided to save our money and go wander down restaurant row and eat ( Read more... )

Today I stopped off at my PO box, and discovered 12 headshots that didn't get to me in time, probably due to lateness on the part of the actors ( Read more... )

The other night Deconstructing Harry was on- it came out in theatres just before we had auditions for Eskimo. After seeing it, Irving, _sara, and I were a little worried about people we'd written about coming after us with guns because of our depictions of them in EskimoWe'd, in fact, been inspired to write a musical about our lives (that one special ( Read more... )

I E-mailed Marti, and she gave me the name and number and e-mail address of the guy who played "Unnneccessarily Abusive Fiancé" in the last play she was in, Missing Something. I was quite taken with him as an actor (and 'cause he's cute), and I'm going to call him to see if he would like to audition for Gregory. He had that effortless masculinity ( Read more... )

Oh, last night, one of the actors was confused by the word "'mo" in the scene he was reading. Afterward he said, "What does that mean, anyway ( Read more... )

So tonight we were to cover my few scenes with Audrey. I arrived really early, as I'd forgotten my watch. When Linda showed up, she had me try on some "Albanian" pants (left over from an opera she'd done). They were poochy around the hips and tapered on the legs, and both sets were in ridiculous fabric patterns. I love 'em. If she can't find ( Read more... )

Yesterday morning I got to Clara's a little before 8:30, and we headed over to the Port Authority. We expected we'd get on the 9:00 bus to Atlantic City, but we had to settle for the 9:30. Round trip tickets were $27, which is not so pricey, considering that one-way is $20. We whiled away the hour and a half trip talking about all sorts of ( Read more... )
