![]() Woo! It's been a crazy few weeks. Lots of things, lots to report. 1.) As of about 10 minutes ago, I've been accepted to the BADA Midsummer in Oxford Program! So very excited. Still waiting on two other places I applied, but. This is great. and lovely. Yay acting and making theatre and learning things. 2.) Split No Lightning happened! (Spoken Word show with The Excelano Project.) Video will be up in the next few weeks. The show turned out splendidly. I learned a lot. It's always wonderful to share something personal, and get feedback. Check out this article on the show. (They misquoted my poem, but. At least I made it into the article!) 3.) The Children's Hour! We opened last night, and we run through Saturday. Fb event. Plus, we got some great coverage in GPhilly. Check it! The show came together beautifully. Very heavy, very intense. Not one for the kids. 4.) My incredibly talented friend Missy, who is applying to film internships right now (to edit professionally), posted a bunch of gorgeous lil movies online. (Some of which I'm in.) But watch mostly for the editing. Because she's uber talented. One's a video poem, the other is about MilkMilkLemonade, a show in which I acted this fall. (see below) 5.) My sister Sarah made a lil movie for her Video I class. I am a fool. Enjoy (below). Pay attention to the music. SHE WROTE IT.

![]() Hell week for The Excelano Project spring 2013 show - Split No Lightning - starts tonight! So very stoked. Show is this Friday and Saturday, 8 pm, in Dunlop Auditorium (3450 Hamilton Walk). Get hype! But mostly, get there. Fb event for the show is right here. In other older news: all of the poems from our fall 2012 show (Mother Tongue) are now uploaded on youtube! Check out the full playlist here. I performed a solo, two collabs, a senior tribute and a short poem. yeet. video footage for the solo, the two collabs and the tribute is below.
Oh boy. All of the things are happening! I think I'll go ahead and just make a list. 1. Poems! (The Excelano Project Show is in a week in a half. "Split No Lightning.") 2. Lines lines lines! (Children's Hour opens in 2.5 weeks. Cloud 9 opens in 4.5. BADA audition in 1.5) 3. Summer Apps! (Finishing up my very last application for summer acting intensive programs.) 4. Thesis! (Working on a proposal for an honors English thesis for UPenn.) 5. Playwriting! (Something I'm totally new at. Submitted a short piece to a Penn contest, for funsies) In my spare time, I'm writing little short poems, and taking too many pictures. Check out the view from where I'm staying. Other things: I just watched a documentary called "The Artist is Present," about a performance art piece at the MOMA by Marina Abromovic. Check it out. One of those changes-the-way-I-think-about-humanity type things. I also just watched Amanda Palmer's TED talk. (Fun fact: I was at the gig when she first "practiced" the talk. If you track down the video, I'm sitting in the front row in an awkward green tank top.) Anyway, it was super inspiring. It's about the music industry, but also how art functions as an honest/personal exchange between artist and audience. In other news, here's a video I acted in for a friend last year. (See below.) It was one of those "final project" type videos for a Video I class. I.e. all of us working on it agreed it was totally abysmal. But....The music! Is spectacular! And written by my extremely talented older sister, who wants to score films professionally. Check out that film score. And check out her website. |
