I just looked at the first line of my last post which mentioned how I hadn’t updated in a while. And that was only 1 MONTH after my previous post.  So, I guess this 11 WEEK absence could be characterized as an egregious act of neglect on my part.  So, to whomever is reading, I apologize. 

MUCH has happened since April Fool’s Day.  Let’s start with where I am now, shall we?

Currently, I am on Cape Cod, doing another play at the ‘gem in the crown of Massachusets theatre”, the Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theatre. I’m in rehearsals for Born Yesterday, which opens up on July 1 and runs through til July 31. 

Then, in August, I go to New York to do a show for the New York Fringe Festival.  It’s called Just in Time - The Judy Holliday Story.  A very strange coincidence that Born Yesterday was the play, and later the film, that made her famous. Summer of 2010 is my “Summer of Holliday.”

Working backward now, in April, I worked on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.  It a one scene co-star role, but, it being one of my favorite shows on TV, it was an awesome experience.  My episode should be airing sometime in the next few weeks.

In March, I worked on the upcoming video game, LA Noire.  It’s by Rockstar Videogames, and it is a highly anticipated game with ground-breaking technology involved. I play Patrolman Kellerman and have several scenes with the lead Detective character. It was a VERY interesting and unique shooting process. After a 70 minute hair/makeup session, I had to go inside this insanely bright, circular room, which had 30 or so cameras all aimed at this chair in the center. I had to sit on the chair and say all my lines to the camera in front of me while being careful to ONLY move my face while talking.  It was odd, somewhat uncomfortable, and wicked fun.  LA Noire is due out in September!

Also in April, I did a great stand-up show at the Funny Bone in San Francisco with the guys from the Pink Ribbon Comedy Tour.

I have not written or updated this in a while!  I mean, jeez Adam, c’mon! 

Let’s see... March was a good month, all in all.  The Groundlings Showcase show went VERY well.  We had a great, supportive audience, and I was happy with what I did in most of the sketches I was in.  We had a great group of performers, so it was only made easier. 

I did several stand-up shows and just went to watch some others, which was good.  I’ve got to stay out there and keep up-to-date with what’s goin on!

I attended a Reel Pros workshop with David Lawrence, which was AMAZING.  It was a Voiceover workshop and his insight and knowledge into the VO industry, along with his bare-bones and direct way of explaining technique was just what I needed and have been looking for.  I plan on attending one of his Sunday evening “Art of Self-directing Home VO Auditions” classes.  I highly recommend any or ALL of his services!

At the moment, I am in the midst of having to make some semi-big decisions about the next 4 months.  Elusive and cryptic as that may sound, I’ll let y’all know how it all turns out sometime next week.

Happy Easter.  Now, on to watch the Red Sox opener!!

UPCOMING STAND-UP SHOWS:
