This is the beginning of my favorite time of year, and I savor every day in September. The month is already off to a happy beginning - I’m back in acting class with Roger Hendricks Simon, and it really doesn’t seem like much time has passed since my last class with him. Fun to have an actor in Roger’s class who took Giles Foreman’s Acting Workshop too, and we are working on a scene from Hamlet, so things are off to a cracking good start.

The summer is flying by ~ it’s been fun and creative so far, here’s to that continuing! I did finish The Snake for the Fear Fest submission, ran it by the writers in my writer’s group, who I encouraged to submit along with me, and they did! It was great fun to read each other’s work.

Performing The Importance of Being Earnest was a joy, despite the weather causing a few cancellations, which is the roll of the dice when you do outdoor theatre. However, the outdoor setting was perfect on the remaining days ~ glorious backdrop of Riverside Park, birds chirping, squirrels dancing back and forth, delicious air, and a terrific cast.

We opened The Importance of Being Earnest June 1st, to a nice outdoor audience, our stage set amongst the flora, fauna and bird life in Riverside Park that Hudson Classical Theatre Company commands for the summer.

I got cast in Hudson Classical Theatre Company’s The Importance of Being Earnest as Miss Prism, and we’ve already started rehearsals. I love this play. In college I did Cecily…

2022 is almost over. Kind of miraculous to have gotten through a year so fast, but maybe it’s a good thing.  Looking forward to a new page, and I have…

This month I hope to finish this fourth, (or is it fifth?) draft of In An Instant. I’m having a fun, frustrating, interesting time trying to work the story line out, and while I’m not there quite yet, I feel I will realize the resolution before too long. I’m enjoying the discoveries and trying not to panic!

Our reading of Paul Singleton’s wonderful play A Singular Set of People was not only entertaining but educational in the best way possible. And it’s always fun to work on new work with old friends. I think Paul got a lot of inspiration and ideas, and we all look forward to his next draft.
