Breaking news! I’ll be in Orlando at the International Orlando Puppet Festival, curated by Heather Henson on July 25th. I’m performing in Tiger Tales by Chinese Theatre Works. The whole festival looks amazing and I’m sorry to be there for only one weekend.

I didn’t believe it either. According to ArcAttack‘s website: ArcAttack employs a unique DJ set up of their own creation (an HVDJ set up) to generate an ‘electrifying’ audio visual performance. The HVDJ pumps music through a PA System while two specially designed DRSSTC’s (Dual-Resonant Solid State Tesla Coils) act as separate synchronized instruments. These

We just finished the show and are tucked safely away in the hotel in Albany. It felt really good to be performing. I’ve missed it. And it’s very nice to have nothing on my docket for the evening.

My business and creative partner, Jodi Eichelberger, has been doing some podcasts. Here’s the description of his latest: From August of 1994 through the spring of 1997 Mary and I toured a production of “Pied Piper†with Tears of Joy Theatre.

We weren’t called until noon today and then didn’t wind up doing any performance until probably three in the afternoon. Today’s sentence is: Let’s shoot him now now. Pretty much everything was run of the mill today. I did live hands for two of the characters–this was actually the first time ever that I’ve live-handed
Rob and I took a break from work to see Finding Neverland at the St. John’s Dome close to where my studio is. I loved it. The performances were uniformly strong, the film was beautifully crafted and I wept like a baby at all the places the director wanted me to.
The workshop performances of Arabian Nights continue to go well. I’m happy with the twist that I added to the design last night and I showed my rough sketches to the gang. They all seem to like them. We’ll see if it works as I start to get into the nitty gritty details. Oh. Mom
Mom and Dad have headed for home. I didn’t get to see them off because I had to get up super early to go to the first workshop performance of Arabian Nights. It went well, but is making us rethink a number of things. I’m going to spend this evening doing some serious work on
I went to see, or listen to, a live radio performance of The Hobbit that Willamette Radio Workshop did. Rob was doing the audio engineering. It was a lot of fun and the audience went nuts over it. The thing that struck me was the difference between listening and watching. I enjoyed it more when
I took Mom and Dad around the studio today and let them watch some stuff. There wasn’t much happening on set, because we’re just doing snow. Theoretically, we’ll do some actual performance, but I don’t know when. Meanwhile, I’ve sent Mom and Dad to the Blue Lagoon.
