Where did the time go? Yeah, I feel like a broken record when I ask that question BUT, I continue to ask it anyway. My last posting was in MAY 2009 for goodness sakes! What was I doing then?
(pardon me while I go back and read my last post. ok. I’m back.)
Wow…um…ok. Well, at the end of June, I finished my successful run in Circus Theatricals Festival of One Act Plays. My hilarious one-act LUNCH-O-LUTION (with the wonderful Vanessa Waters) was a hit with audiences.
Summer was spent re-energizing with a road trip up the coast to Cambria.
The Fall brought me to Paris & the South of France for two glorious weeks.
In November, I shot a commercial for Charter Communications called “WAREHOUSE” (currently running in in the northeast, southeast, & central states) Click on the title to check it out!
On December 1st, I became a first-time aunt to Maya Paige Baron!
Other fun times in December…
- did a voice-match job for Amy Poehler on a VITAMIN WATER campaign pitch.
- started rehearsals for Marsha Norman’s beautiful play GETTING OUT – the next production for Circus Theatricals at THE HAYWORTH THEATRE (where The Women had it’s successful 3 month run!). Yours truly is playing her first leading role! I’m being directed by the fabulous Robert Cicchini, and surrounded by a wonderful cast (including Courtney Munch, who’s playing my younger, violent self).
Playing/preparing for this role has led me to something I’ve always wanted to do hardcore – Boxing! For two months, I’m training 2 hours, 3 days a week at Fortune’s Gym on Sunset Blvd. with Jesse Reid (trainer of 30 champions!). Running and/or hiking on my off days. I’m thrilled with the mental, emotional & physical transformation it’s created! I’ve got just a couple more weeks to go before I let the preparation “cook” for the part. (hmm…maybe if a movie studio was paying for it I’d keep going? It’s brutal yet adrenaline-inducing punishment on the body.)
So that’s “it” for the time being. I’ll try to keep more on top of these updates. I just don’t know where the time goes sometimes.
Ha!
