Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday, Bro!

Catching up with me and Toni. Wooo! Whooo!

NYC Workshop 09 and Yorkshire NY

The workshop this year went very well. It was great to see and work with previous attendees and new people. The range of ages and experience was also very nice as an instructor to work with. I would like to thank Gina Bonati (Actress, Instructor, dancer) for her great input and presence at this years workshop. This year we had of course our fabulous over fifty gals, Philamena, Betsy, Cheryl, and Judy, our math teacher, Cristen, four actresses in training, two working actors, and a writer, Ash. Special thanks to Matt for his time taping and taking pics and to Heather for finding the space and helping me out. I had a great time in NYC visiting family and friends. After which, I flew up to Buffalo, to meet my sister-in-law, her husband, and my four new nieces and nephews. Also, not to mention how lovely it was to spend time with my mother-in-law, MaryAnn, and her significant other, John, and of course, my baby girl, Alicia. Special thanks to my mom for caring for Killer while we were gone. So, looking forward to next years workshop. This time I think I'll spend a bit more time in NYC. Although, the time factor actually saved me from doing needless shopping.

Gearing up for NYC? Just weeks away. For a little peak on what you will be doing during the workshop check out Toni and I on Abc 4's Good Things Utah

Tuned In or Tuned Out

On Wednesday, President Barack Obama will address the nation with a 100-day news conference. For the event, Obama requested airtime from all the major networks.
And while ABC, CBS, and NBC will broadcast the conference, Fox has declined.
Why you ask? Well because there is a live American Idol result show scheduled at 9:00 and we know what is most important now don't we..

Workshops Utah and New York

Gearing up for my workshops. First stop, Orem, Utah where I will be conducting an Acting Workshop at Timpanogos Harley Davidson on May 9th. Look for me on Utah's abc 4, "Good Things Utah" on May 7th, along with my sister, Toni, promoting the workshop. Those not in Utah can see the video online at http://www.abc4.com , "Good Things Utah," after it airs. Then on to NYC on June 6th at The Tank in Hell's Kitchen. Looking forward to seeing annual participants and new participants. Space is filling up for both workshops so be sure to visit my workshop page to sign up.

NYC Workshop

Hello Everyone,

I am gearing up for the annual NYC Workshop this June. Please see my workshop page to sign up. This year will be a nice combination of actors of all ages and types. Instead of just doing cold readings we will be actually doing relaxation and sense memory exercises along with improvisations. It is actually going to be an Acting Workshop as opposed to an Audition Workshop. Those of you that also have monologues that you would like to work on please bring them in. Looking forward to working with you all again and meeting and working with new students of the Art.

Seeing Green

Happy St. Patricks day. Now that I am a Halladay, I can celebrate the day as if I was Irish. So dressed in my blue and green bathing suit, I will head out on the beach, and do the pub crawl today. I'll take some pics of the many bands playing and the spring break partiers. Also, if any of you have St. Patricks day pics you want posted, email them to me and my next blog will consist of national parties. Wooo! Weee!
