Thank you Women’s Comedy Film Festival Atlanta for the “Best Micro Short Web Episode” win last weekend! What an honor that “Gratitude Jar Time Capsule” was selected amongst so many amazing and hilarious films from all over the world. THANK YOU!!
Here’s a silly romp with Punch & Judy — “Perfectly Awful” is a song written by the brilliant Brian Woodbury as part of his “Levity & Novelty” CD available here. We had a blast shooting this video, hope you enjoy it!
Sad to hear about the closing of a legendary Los Angeles nightclub/venue called Rockwell Table & Stage. I had the privilege of performing here a few years ago as part of their series “A Little New Music” which showcased songs from brand new musicals.
I got to sing “People Person” which was written by Brian Woodbury for his musical “Ghost-s: The Musical” in which I play an evil real estate developer. Take a few minutes to watch the video:
As soon as it’s safe to do so, please support your local music and theater establishments. They’re gonna need all the help they can get. And seeing live performance is good for the soul!!
So thrilled that “Gratitude Jar Time Capsule” will be included in the upcoming Australian “Over The Fence Film Festival” which will be celebrating its 25th year!
The fun starts in Perth May 6, 7, & 8, and tours the country until November. Once the exact schedule it announced, I’ll post it here. (And privately YEARN to attend in person!)
I had the honor of being the co-writer, co-director and co-star of the film “A Bit of Counseling” which won “Most Popular Film” at the Over The Fence Festival in 2009, so this festival holds a special place in my heart.
Thank you OTF Fest, and congrats on 25 years!
So thrilled that our short comedy film “Gratitude Jar Time Capsule” won “Best Comedy Television Pilot” at the 2020 Atlanta Comedy Film Festival!
The festival was chock-full of wonderful and original films, all so entertaining and impressive. My co-creator Stephanie Erb and I were really thrilled to even be nominated, honestly. But to win was such an honor and a thrill! Thanks to everyone involved in making the festival happen during this challenging year, when we need to laugh more than ever.
UPDATE: OVER 20,000 have listened to the podcasts so far, in over 5 continents!
The Los Angeles Times called the series “Delightful… exceptional… quick and fun and surprising!”
Featured in LAist’s “Best Online Post-Election Diversions!”
Commissioned by Antaeus Theatre Company in August and recorded remotely in September, the 30-minute radio play “90024: Westwood — All Information Herein is Classified” is now available for streaming at Antaeus.org or wherever you get your podcasts.
Directed by Carolyn Ratteray and starring Dawn Didawick, Bo Foxworth, and Catia Ojeda, the play is collection of digital audio FBI files on Eleanor Pender McPherson, an alleged participant in protests in and around UCLA. The two FBI agents assigned to her surveillance learn never to underestimate an 80 year old woman.
I’m so grateful to Antaeus for selecting me to create this piece, to Jeff Gardner for mastering the audio production, and to the director and cast for bringing it to life. I hope you all take a few minutes to listen, and enjoy!
So thrilled to announce that my short film “Gratitude Jar Time Capsule” (co-created with Stephanie Erb) is an official selection in the Pittsburgh Shorts Film Festival and the Atlanta Comedy Film Festival!
Pittsburgh Shorts Film Festival will be virtually streamed November 11-22, and Atlanta Comedy Film Festival is a one-day virtual (and limited in-person) event on December 6. Get your tickets today!
