When I moved to Chicago in the summer of 2007, excited midwesterners bopped all around me continuously exclaiming, “Chicago’s summers are wonderful!” and “Oh, the best place to be for summer is Chicago!!” I had just moved here from Seattle where the summers are pleasantly moderate with no humidity. Combine that with mountain air and…
Spring is almost here! I am very thrilled to now be a company member with Chicago’s WNEP Theatre! Beast Women starts back up again this coming weekend! My performance page has been updated with the specific dates.
Thanks to Vaudezilla, one of my improvised soliloquies was recorded. This performance was here in Chicago with Beast Women at the Prop Theatre. Beast Women’s Fall Series runs until 11/22. I’m performing on closing night. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEKE3RMw_-k&hl=en&fs=1]
These little entries don’t write themselves, I guess. I’ve not been overly update-y on here by a longshot.

The female performance cabaret (Beast Women), with whom I’ve been performing many of my solo pieces, has been extended! Hooray! We’ll be at the Prop Theatre for late night Saturday shows all though June! Hopefully, I’ll get around to updating the performance page soon-ish.
Thank you to all of the people in my life who have encouraged me, supported me, and told me to get my butt out there and follow my heart. It’s working.
