About two years ago I discovered instead of just sitting my butt in the seats enjoying theater—and reminicing about the days when I performed in High School (and all those hundreds of performances I forced Lil Brother and Angie to perform for our moms!) I could actually be A PART of this world (yes, you should be singing Ariel when reading this line…)
Since that moment, I’ve been on stage singing, acting, very very very poorly dancing. I’ve been a Producer and a Director. And as always a lover of All Things Theater. I still have to WRITE a play, but that’s a little scarier for some reason.
Not much warms my heart more than the energy surrounding talented, good-hearted folk during rehearsals. I’m blessed beyond measure to have discovered this world (at the tender age of 45!) And I truly can’t imagine my life without all these amazing new friends.
Thank you Springville Center for the Arts and Inclusive Theater of WNY for letting me be a part of the magic.
It’s NEVER too late to dive in to something new. You never know where life will take you and who you’ll meet that will become lifelong friends along the way.
My next projects:
Mid-November: Directing one of the plays for Inclusive Theater of WNY 2nd Annual Festival of Shorts – Theme: Stigma.
Followed closely by a one weekend production of It”s A Wonderful Life – Radio Show with the Arcade Radio Theater Society the first weekend of December – I’m playing the role of “Aunt Millie” (Uncle Billy).
Who knows where 2020 will lead!
