how i cried on stage

i did it. i hit a milestone in my acting career.
much as the title suggested i cried onstage during my monologue. Now for the non-thesbians in the room this may seem a simple, annoying task much like mixing colors or something. I can assure you that this is possibly one of the most poignant parts of an actors career, when he or she becomes so comfortable with their emotions and so connected with their work they can summon those emotions at will. Even though i did cry on stage, it wasn't in front of an audience. That will be my real test. If i can do that, then it will be truly a means for celebration. Until then, im content with my little display for empty chairs, because nonetheless it's better then nothing at all

the new jesus movie


all of you have seen the old jesus movie. Shoddily shot, poorly versed, and a little off.

I am here to tell you that 2.0 is a whole new experience in itself

The way we have it now it is like a "Brighton Beach Memoirs meets How I Met Your Mother" style of narration, once again focusing on Jesus's shadowed brother, Mordachai. This style means that the narrator will "pause" the scene, break the 4th wall (which will make for some bad puns) and talk directly to the audience, through this style the narrator is also able to act as an omnipotent narrator similar to bob saggot in HIMYM. What we have changed in 2.o is a lot of the story line. We have made it more cohesive and centered on just Mordachai's various relationships that he has, and will build.
