A recap

Maybe I'll start doing weekly recaps for weeks when I don't get around to blogging much, just to keep things current. Some cool stuff this week, most especially attending a Solo writer/performer and director exchange at the Dramatists Guild. It was a nice event and broadened the pool of contacts a bit perhaps if nothing else. Saw the director of Bette's piece from the Estrogenius Festival a few years back, Elena Araoz. The writers essentially got to present an excerpt of a piece and the directors got to hold forth on their modus operandi. It was good just to be in a roomful of people who work in and love theater.

I sent an email the next day, offering the script to anyone who would like to read it and got one bite from Thom Fogerty. Seems to be a nice guy on a similar wavelength; anyone who quotes Stew in email signature is ok with me.

It's getting to be time to get a bit more serious about Old Hickory . . . Feb will be here before you know it! I'm excited for what 2012 is going to bring, lots of potential in so many areas . . . acting, writing and the accursed but not hated: work.

Just read the NY Times review of Krapp's Last Tape. Really good one, we're seeing it next Friday . . . can't wait. Charles Isherwood wrote it and it was one of the best written reviews I can remember . . . hard to believe John Hurt has never been on stage in NYC before!
