Since Tour...

Since the Oklahoma tour, I've been desperately trying to book the next job. I mean, I had been working consistently for about a year before that and really thought I was on a roll. It's been 4 months since, and because of political issues mostly, I have still to book another job, despite my many connections.

But not all hope is lost, when I got back, I took the next month to network like crazy through Actors Connection, which was really great. I made a lot of good impressions and got my name out there, and reminded casting directors and agents of who I was and where I was at. I got a TON of positive feedback and got many auditions and other interviews because of those meetings.

I got an interview with the casting director of the TV show "Royal Pains" and I'm hoping to be on this season! They said I had a great look for the show, and they would call me in as soon as they found a script I was right for- exciting!

I booked a commercial agent! I am now freelancing with Erica Moran at Avalon Artists!

My biggest success was being brought in for the lead role, Nellie Forbush, in South Pacific for the National Tour. This audition got me an appointment with Chris' legit agent, also at Avalon Artists, this past Friday. So if he doesn't have too many blonde all-American types on his roster already, I'd get signed! This is what I need so badly!

I haven't heard yet from South Pacific, but it went really well, and I know that they are just waiting to find their leading man, who is Nelly's opposite, so bring any Nellie's back in. Hopefully I'm still in the running!

This past month has been really slow otherwise, unfortunately. So I've been working and writing my book on babysitting- check out my new babysitting info:

Show I've seen lately: Sister Act! It was a TON of fun, I recommend it!

Chris (my hubby) has been in Ogunquit, Maine at Ogunquit Playhouse for 2 weeks and has 3 weeks of shows left doing Avenue Q as Nikki/ Trekki.
