Hitting the ground running...

I'm back home. After the whirlwind of yesterday, I'm happy to say I got a good night's sleep (despite our crazy LA heat). And now it feels like I'm juggling 18 projects and not accomplishing much on anything. Gotta focus!

One thing that's been on my mind lately is the lack of acting projects on the immediate horizon. In an actor's life, there are times the work feels like it's rolling in, and then there are other times when you feel like you'll never work again. I was feeling the latter after a few unsuccessful auditions. But in addition to the imminent Stop the World reading for MTG, I've just booked a couple workshoppish projects (actually within the last couple hours). First is a table read of a new musical The Roxy which may continue into a staged read in November. Second is a workshop concert version of Snow White at Disney Concert Hall (conducted by John Mauceri) produced by Disney Theatricals. I'm super excited about A) the opportunity and B) getting to perform on the stage of that beautiful building! So sometimes it's good to keep putting it out there and be patient.

And the schedule seems to be falling into place. All three of these projects lined up just right, and my trip to NYC at the end of September also fit right into the puzzle. We'll see if I can get a family trip or two onto the autumn calendar as well as a return to DC to curate my next exhibit in early November. I'm counting my blessings.

Well, I've got to stop procrastinating and focus on the tasks at hand. Whee! Take care, all! Peace and love.
