Good grief, has it really been almost three months since I last posted here? Well, like they say, time flies when you're having. Whatever it is you're having. And whatever it is, I've been having a lot of it.
- I'm heading into my second weekend of a three-weekend run of an evening of theatre called "Ten Minute Madness." Put on by a tiny little fringe theatre outfit called The Northpark Vaudeville and Candy Shoppe, the show consists of eight short original plays, nominally 10 minutes each. I have major roles in two of the plays, and a minor role in a third. I get to play a dog pining away for his humans to come home, and one of a pair of compulsive liars locking horns over movies and reality. Pretty danged cool if I do say so myself. If you're in the San Diego area, come check the show out! You can purchase tickets through the above link
- I got invited to join this brand-new sketch comedy and improv group, name still to be officially determined, first performance tenatively scheduled for the first weekend in May. One of the sketches we're going to do is mine--I took my spoken word piece about the First Church of Whoopie as a starting point and envisioned the church as a very wacky--and fairly smutty--cable access TV show. As soon as I have a link to post about this one, I will.
- I just got cast for a small part in Looking Glass Theatre's LGBT Pride Month 2009 offering, Paul Rudnick's Jeffrey. Alas, while this is an excellent and entertaining play, almost by definition it's not got a lot in the way of female parts (it being a play all about gay men dealing with AIDS in the 1990s). But I've got a humorous little bit, and I'll have fun with it. Again, as soon as I have a link to post, I will.
- Meanwhile I continue to be involved in online fannish activities ... in particular a very involved extended on-line roleplay based on--nu, what else?--Lupin III. I am of course playing the title role, and am also writing for Fujiko. We're up to 13 pages and counting, since getting underway the beginning of February. If you'd like to check out our progress, just look over here.
- And oh yeah, there's basic stuff like the work I do for my actual livelihood, not to mention time I begrudgingly give to sleep, laundry, etc.
No wonder I haven't been posting here! And have put the "Fun and Thieving in Las Vegas" fanfic on hiatus for awhile. I will get back to being more regular on both, I promise. But in the meantime, I don't begrudge the interruptions when they are for such rewarding activities.
