Did You Say FIVE Shows?

Yes, I did. The results of my second callback are in and I'm cast. Again. Amazing. Remember, I did MONOLOGUES at these auditions. Woo-Hoo!

Okay, that's somewhat tentative right now, but looking good. The director wants me but (as you might imagine) I have beaucoup conflicts in October which the producer must agree to work around. If he does, that'll be the fifth show on my radar next month. While not quite as incredible as my being cast from a monologue in the first place, the resulting rehearsal schedule is somewhat remarkable.

The first show to open, in which I am cast, is A Terminal Affair, directed by Orrick -- October 12 and 13; on the following weekend (October 18 and 19) Among the Missing, which I am directing, will open. Two weekends after that (November 2 and 3) The Last Supper, another show I'm directing, opens; and on the weekend following -- November 9th -- The O'Conner Girls, in which I am cast, opens.

The first three shows, each running only one weekend and each having a Thursday tech rehearsal, created a conflict for The O'Conner Girls, which will run for 5 weeks. Nevertheless I was cast. Now The O'Conner Girls is creating a conflict for Anton in Show Business, which will open in January and run for 8 weeks. Unfortunately, it goes into rehearsal in October. Fortunately, that early start allows some wiggle room for my joining the cast late. And, in the meantime, on Sundays.

This friends, makes for one schizo calendar!


But it's nice to be in demand.
