The Last Year or So..... An Update

Its been a year and several months since I've graduated college, and what a whirlwind it has been. Since I came back home I have been non-stop with shows and designing.
I'll list them:

As a Sound Designer
The Voice of The Prairie - College of Southern Maryland
My Children, My Africa - College of Southern Maryland
Around The World In 8 Plays - College of Southern Maryland
Journey's End - College of Southern Maryland
Hairspray - Tantallon Community Players
The Heidi Chronicles - Hard Bargain Players
Vanya, Sonia, Masha and Spike - College of Southern Maryland
Let The Right One In - Hard Bargain Players

As an Actor
Sister Act as Curtis Jackson - Port Tobacco Players
The Hound of the Baskervilles as Dr. James Mortimer- Port Tobacco Players
Ragtime as Booker T Washington - College of Southern Maryland
U-Street, The Musical as Booker T - Momentum Collective Inc.
Jesus Christ Superstar as King Herod - Port Tobacco Players
Hairspray as Gilbert/ u.s. Seaweed - Tantallon Community Players

Needless to say I took a summer off! While I was resting my mind, body, and soul, and also recharging my creative juices I was offered a job as Company Sound Designer and Guest Artist for the 2018/2019 season at the College of Southern Maryland. So I'm getting paid to Sound Design their upcoming 6 shows which started with Vanya, Sonia, Masha, and Spike. Including Sound Design, I'm directing an adaptation of Br'er Rabbit that I wrote for the College of Southern Maryland.

Its going to be a great year coming, I can feel it in my bones.

After this year is over, I'm going to start looking into grad schools. Sound Design has really taken over my mind. I would go and see shows and within my mind sound design it as the performers are giving it all on stage. So I may go for a grad program that offers Sound Design.

Acting will always be my love and passion, but I'm going to start being very selective about the parts and shows I choose to audition for. Don't get me wrong, I would love every opportunity I get, but there are some parts and character types that I've played over and over again and now I want something that will really challenge me and make me dig deep. Booker T (U-Street), Booker T Washington (Ragtime), and The Oldest Old Man/Oddsee Dog (Father Comes Home From The Wars) , really make me work and I enjoyed that aspect of those characters and I would play those parts over again if the chance came up.

Until Next Time, Stay Amazing, You Beautiful Creature!
