Tide Pods and Time Capsules

Every once in a while, a commercial I'm in will play on TV all year long, and it's really nice when that happens.  But then sometimes, the other actress in the commercial is someone I've been making theater with for the past 15 years, and you know what?  That is even nicer than all those steady residual checks.

Well, okay.  It's also nice.  In a different way.

Check out the hilarious Alex Hoover (and I) in this commercial, and see all those years on the stage filtered down into one 30 second joke to sell detergent.

Making Theater @ Boston Court

I am buzzing with excitement as we head into tech week for my latest adventure on the stage:  the world premiere of Everything You Touch by one of my favorite playwrights, Sheila Callaghan.  A hilarious and challenging work, it tackles body image, artistic identity, and forgiveness with all the ferocious abandon of a supermodel charging down the runway.  You'll love it.  We start previews on April 3rd and open April 12th.  Get your tickets here!

Foster & Jacobs

Tony Foster and Doug Jacobs are two great Los Angeles playwrights, and great friends, and I have helped to produce a night of their shorter work.  I'm also acting in one of the plays and directing a couple others.  The night is funny and fast and nostalgic and raunchy.  Need one more reason to come?  Watch the promo video I filmed in my bathroom. 

The Play that Almost Was

It was such a joy to direct "Picasso at the Lapin Agile", if only for a short while. After four amazing weeks of rehearsal, the production was cancelled. But what fun it was while it lasted! Hopefully the tremendous cast and I will get another go at it another day, but until then, enjoy this promo film I shot, for the play that almost was...
