I started to play the guitar when I was 12. When I finally decided to try to be an actor for a living.... Musical theatre was something I gravitated to because it combined two of my favorite things...music and dance belts (or girls...or girls in dance belts). When I was in high school I sang in a rock band (we were totally sensitive) and I love that feeling of getting out there with a band creating a cacophony of different sounds. So, when they asked me to write a blerg (the Tina Fey pronunciation), I decided to write mine about the band.
Well, maybe we are. And maybe you are too. I used to like to consider a lot of the crazy people who stopped to talk to me in the street my guardian angels. Some drunk guy would walk up to me and tell me to follow my dreams: guardian angel. That was when I first got to New York. I was younger then (cough, cough, smoke, smoke.) And yet, I do feel quite lucky (shall I use the word blessed?) to go out on stage and work with these lovely and talented people on Falling for Eve every night. I also love getting to talk to the audience. Especially when they are smiling and look like they are ready for a good time. That's right, y'all: I can see your faces. That's also right, friends and family: Please sit in the fourth row or further back.
