Well, we did have one bit of nice news - we have a costume designer. One less thing. And apparently I'll be seeing some really good people on Wednesday night and they have all been told the deal - don't come if you're not prepared to do the show and start the next day.We've been discussing another Fred possibility, but he's in a show until September 3rd, so given the Labor Day weekend and all, he probably wouldn't be able to start until the 5th, so I'm not sure about it. He's a good choice, but bringing him up brought another actor to mind, someone with whom I've worked, and who's in the same show. I've talked to him and he's checking with his agent to see if he'd be free.
I am pleased to report that my Cal Bolder interview is finally in the new issue of FILMFAX...look for it at a newstand near you! Also, the same issue has an interview with friend of Charles Pogue, Mz. June Wilkinson! Between Cal and June this is rather a body beautiful issue!
bk - Even with all your casting woes, I think the one thing to keep in mind is that you're dealing with a pool of experienced actors here in NYC. You're not dealing with LACC students. Whoever you end up casting - and the people you've already cast - know what the deal is with NYMF (and other similar situations). They will pick things up fast. And after being in the room with Adam for just a few hours, I'm sure he'll have the whole "Brain Tap" sequence taught and learned in just a few hours, leaving plenty of time to review and tweak it. I'm not disparaging your student cast at LACC, but I also just want to "remind" you that your dealing with "actors" now, not students. -Heck, some of your cast just came off some summer-stock gigs, and if they can put up Carousel and Les Miserables(!!!) in 10-days, surely getting The Brain from Planet X in three to four weeks should be a breeze for them.Remember.... Breathe.
Come on... Just have a little bite...[/b]
And I really have to say that the level of "personal sharing" that goes on on this site continues to impress and inspire me. -Heck, I don't even have my correct weight on my driver's license, but I posted it here!
And then after cutting down Cornelia Street, we ended up back at Bleecker, and found ourselves heading into Amy's Bread.As luck/fate/karma would have it, there was just one last slice left of....MONKEY CAKE[/i]
The names that influenced my choice of NYMF shows are Bruce, Larry, Cason, Noel, Fred, and Skip.
Oh Lord - Jose; those pictures and your explanation of the afternoon had me cracking up. You are definitely the gayest.To bring everyone else up to speed, when Jose saw that a branch of "The City Bakery" had opened up on 6th Ave. (across the street from where we were)...well, I've just never seen a grown man throw caution to the wind and proceed to gaily romp through several (luckily empty) lanes of traffic like that.
Wonderful photos DR JoseP...you just crack me up!
See Case, I thought monkeycake sounded like it would be a tropical version of carrot cake -- and by this picture, I think I'm right -- it sure looks like a carrot cake...
The cast was going out to celebrate and have some drinks - but I had/still have a pretty intense headache, so I figured it would be better to just come home.
Tweight pretty quickly)Weighed the most when I was pregnant with Case (gained about 40 lbs -- he was a whopper).
