THE STORYTELLERS...
Welcome to the birth of my Chicago Based Theater Company- THE STORYTELLERS. Myself, Chris, My brother Michael and Jason (my gay boyfriend)- have created and given birth to THE STORYTELLERS. A really cool, really fun company I hope will take off and become a thriving social force in the Chicago Theater world. We held our first Auditions for A NIGHT OF ADULT SHELSILVERSTIEN that will run for a week in November. We had some REAL talent show up. It was thrilling. The show is a series of one acts written by Shel. They ARE NOT for children. The man was a bit twisted really-in a good way. I am directing two of them, Chris is Directing two and Michael is doing two as well. 7 one acts total. Chris is performing one that is audience participative. We are stoked. Auditions were a blast. Round two and call backs are Saturday. Then we start production. WE NEED MORE MEN TO AUDITION! Its nice to see that the actor pool is the same all over..LOTS of women, not so many men... And thanks to hurricane Katrina Redmoon has had to re-write the show on the lagoon. See previous posts for the photo of the show plans before Katrina....We open a week from today.....2,000 people a night-30 volunteers under my command....Show on the water....Pray for me.

That is so awesome!!!! I wish I lived in ChiTown so I could:
a: gloat that the Redskins kicked Da Bears asses on Sunday
b: audition for your show!
I still have dreams that I'm in a play at Tech and have never bothered to study my lines and it's opening night and oh shit I don't have any prompters and oh my god the curtain's going up and....
Oh wait, that was the actors in MY show....

I don't kid myself..I know the Bears SUCK! I'm a White SOX fan- it's the only Chicago Team worth rooting for.
