God, I hope so! Randy's between jobs right now, I think, so here's hoping he's already hopped a flight to CA. :D

I was just translating this interview and I'm all OMFGWOW right now... I mean, hey, "I opened up my guns and let them blaze"?.. "We can sit around on a blanket with some wine and grapes and get to them all"?.. That sounds like Val Xavier is talking, don't you think?
"It’s phraseology." Oh, that's definitely Gale!!! %)))

SRSLY WOW. Sounds so Gale to me. Oh, Gale, I love your brain.

Hee! I can so hear him saying it. So, yup, a Gale word, but sadly not a Galeword. It existed before he got a hold of it, y'know? ;)

Hehe... :)
But I'm worried because the theater is so small...

Well, have fun there (:D) and don't let them kick you out! :P

It's an amazing article! :)
And I also wondered who Shurtleff is, so thanks for pointing that out. Although, it's too late over here for the part of my brain that is responsible for me understanding English to be able to understand his (Shurtleff's) views. I guess I need to read these quotes again in the morning. :P

But now to GALE!!! :D
I think he was "typically Gale" in this interview. *g* The "I-don't-give-a-shit-about-the-QAF-audition" attitude compared with "I'm-a-Southern-boy,-you-know?" and "art-is-meta-fascinating-and-I-find-the-words-to-tell-you-that!" That is our Gale! LOL.

How I wish I could see this! :(

Me too. :( Let's hold each other through it all.

*g* Just to "fill in the blanks": Michael Shurtleff was a pretty famous casting director years ago, particularly on Broadway. Had a long association w/the producer, David Merrick. He also worked w/Bob Fosse.

He wrote a book in the late seventies called, "Audition: Everything an Actor Needs to Know to Get the Part," that so many actors used as a guide. But it wasn't cut and dried. It was more how to get yourself into the role. Even producers and directors used it.

Many acting students still use it.

...and sorry, Ree, that I'm kind of "hijacking" this post! :P
