New year, new building new show, new works....

M.F.A 2

So it has already been a month into my second year at DePaul. I could not be more excited, and I am really starting to feel/notice a difference in my classwork/scene work.

I am working on Sondheim's Assassins, where I am the character Giuseppe Zangara, and needless to say I am thrilled. This will be the first for: A Sondheim show, first show at DePaul, my first show at the new DePaul building, first time playing a person who existed in the "real" world. Super exciting stuff. We are about a week into rehearsals and I can already say the show is going to be incredible. Incredible team incredible cast. Get tickets quickly if you can!

2nd year in the masters program deals with a lot of Shakespeare Text. I consider this one my biggest challenges in the whole realm of the theater world (Lots of places tend to do Shakespeare) and although worried, I'm up for the challenge and hopefully will grow to love it. I already have learned so much and there is so much more to go.

New Building

This year is the grand opening of the new theater building at DePaul  and it is pretty god damn amazing. Check it out by checking the link here.

It is a great space, kinda "sterile" right now but that is to be expected. Can't wait to see what the future holds.

New Works

So I decided I am going to start brainstorming some shows that I have been really itching to write. The main one being some sort of show of the impact of suicide (dealing with Todd Casper). Not really sure where that is going to take me, but I've been mulling it over and I think it is time to take the next step. 

I am also very pleased to announce that I am working on a Doritios Crash the Superbowl commercial for my workshop piece this year (meaning full support) and I am so excited to get an idea that I have had for a long time FINALLY off the ground. I will try to keep that updated on here!

That is it for now, see you in probably 6 months when I decide to write again...
