Times are Unpredictable
Some of you or may not know but I am doing a show up in New York City. Its non paying and its for a festival, but it is damn good experience. It has made me realize that i dont want to move here unless I have my Equity Card. This life up here is soooo insanely hectic and fuck is it expensive. I can totally see how this city can bleed you dry and take away your soul. But it IS exciting at least. I enjoy DC so much because I get city life as well as suburbia and i can actually afford it!
Rehearsals are going well. I am 90% off book and have a week to finish it all up before tech week. I have a fun cast and a great director. Im enjoying working through the script. The bad part is commuting. Im fucking exhausted. Im spending over 8 hrs of my life commuting back and forth. It tends to be a bit lonely though. I am glad i have great friends who give me places to crash. I just wish i could share my experiences with my close friends. Its a little scary to be on a bus considering all the crashes that have happened in the last week or so...but if its my time....it is my time. Sucky to die on a bus though. I wish i had money so i could go shopping but i dont wanna bring back bed bugs...GROSS!! Tonight i get in at 11 pm and will have to do a whole bed bug prevention...starting with washing and spraying all my bags....fun. Sorry guys writing this from my phone. Love and peace to you all.
PS this stuff in Japan is terrifying and incredibly sad....donate people! They dont need prayers they need money.

An Actor in the City....New York City to be exact
So for the month of March I will be commuting from both DC to NYC to do a show at the Manhattan Repertory Theatre. I will be playing Samantha in The Unpredictable Times. We run March 30th and April 1 and 2. I am going up today to rehearse then i head back to DC. Probably will have another blog post up after rehearsal. I'm on the Megabus now....my back hurts. Gonna take the subway up to Times Square ans chill before rehearsal! Cheers. Living the dream.
