Sweet Brown will tell you, “Ain’t nobody got time for that.” Those were the guiding words during our rehearsal for The Lookout. Before I tell you who Sweet Brown is, and why she didn’t have time for that (whatever that is), let me first tell you of some good news! After some time away from touching anything … Continue reading

Soon after the World Premiere of Yes, We’re Open at the 30th Annual San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival, I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Dig In Magazine. It’s been a neat little trip and I’m eternally grateful for all those involved!
No no, I didn’t go and do some video pirating. I spent a few hours yesterday filming the interview portion of what will end up in the New Play Development Factory promotional video. If you’re into theatre AND the process of taking something from page to stage (thanks for that phrase Cara), then stage/developmental readings are … Continue reading
Reblogged from The Actor's Diet: Oh what a night! So. Not. Typical. I felt like Cinderella! Autographing Yes We’re Open posters… …riding in style… …starring in a movie at the 1400-seat historic landmark: It was quite a whirlwind. Surprised I remembered to snap any pics!
