The first piece of the new Queens semester is due Friday.  It's time to put away the bucket and sand shovel and get back to work. 

I also auditioned yesterday for the first time in two years.  There have been a few print jobs in between, including one with a spasmatic dog, but no stage work.  This was the real thing, and it went well considering how out of shape my chops are.  The song was so-so, but they got the idea that I can sing.  The monologue, a piece from "The Goodbye People," worked very well. 

We'll see.

Good luck with the new role, Jim!

I thought of you recently while reading V4.1 of the journal "Ninth Letter." Two of the stories involve acting/actors/auditions--the first of which is one of the best stories I've read all year. (In a nutshell: the child actors from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory have all grown up and are performing together as a nostalgia act on a cruise ship, and their insane love of Gene Wilder causes wicked funny havoc).

Sounds great. Of course, that's non-fiction, right? Willie Wonka is real.
