So how was my first run on an L.A. stage? It’s been great. Truly. Earlier this week, I was in more of my natural element: a television soundstage. 12 hour day (usually the minimum), even with digital technology, at least 45 minutes between each setup to (hopefully) capture five minutes of usuable footage. You […]
Alright stragglers, this is it! The last weekend to catch Natalie Portman: the Musical! So what do you need? A nice review from one of my old stomping grounds? Fine, here’s what the Daily Trojan had to say: http://dailytrojan.com/2012/09/19/haute-highlights-36/ What’s that? They were biased?!? I didn’t even know they were in the audience!!! Fine, how you like these LifeinLA […]
Once in a while, you sit back and you look at the decisions you made (and didn’t make) and you wonder in what ways you may be better off (or worse off). And then I finally got my copy of GQ this month, which has a fantastic interview with Denzel. The whole interview is […]
Before I go into full promotional mode, let me say this: I’m not doing one of my deliberate ‘quiet’ things right now, in terms of what’s going on in the news/politics. I know some of you are already fatigued by it (and we’ve still got a month to go to the actual election yay!); […]
So many different topics I want to cover, but a lot going on personally right now, so I just have to tackle them as I have them. The perfect segway for this clip… This has been making the rounds a bit more recently, but if you haven’t seen it and you have 10 […]
After a great opening weekend, we’re back at it again this week doing Natalie Portman: the Musical. But don’t take my word for it; check out the review from L.A. Weekly: http://blogs.laweekly.com/arts/2012/09/new_theater_reviews.php 3 weekends left; if you’re in L.A., I hope you make it down!
I found myself nodding quite a bit as I watched this one. Here’s the (hopefully not) last edition of Ask a Muslim. The subject is 9/11:
First, thanks to everyone who came out for the opening weekend of Natalie Portman: the Musical. (Of course I’m going to say this, but in complete sincerity) Everyone who’s come down has told me they’ve enjoyed it and spoken very highly of everyone in the cast. Behind the scenes we all can name all […]
In no particular order… 1. Word made it back to me that opening night of ‘Natalie Portman: the Musical’ has already sold out. Thank you to the numerous friends who have sent congrats to me for getting the role, and my various L.A. people who have let me know they’re coming through either […]
So…here is the project some of you have known I’ve been rehearsing and posting pics of… I am honored to be part of the cast of the Los Angeles run of ‘Natalie Portman: the Musical’. As the title and the image above suggests, the play is a comedic look at the life of times […]
