2024- a two part recap:
•lots of self tapes, but I really went for character aesthetic with Mean Girls 📖🩷
•snow came in late January but was gone within a week❄️
•Mom came to visit and we crossed the Brooklyn Bridge together! 🌉
•saw Kimberly Akimbo thanks to a friend and former classmate on staff at the Booth ✨
•sang at Broadway Sessions for a second time 🎤🎶
•decked out my very own Easter bonnet for the annual walk down 5th Ave 🌸💐👒
•squeezed in a lot of in studio auditions, from early mornings to waiting throughout the afternoons hoping to be seen 🎭
• Quit my teaching job to go for what I really want! No pic of that but it’s a day I don’t think I’ll ever forget anyway.
•lots of mixed emotions followed, but then Motley Crue was back in the city for a one night only club show! Jumped at the opportunity and had a blast, even mingled a bit preshow with some of their wives!
•a few rough weeks followed looking for new work while keeping my 2nd part time job. No pic for that obviously.
•Another moment of light when I was offered to take a friend’s ticket to Lempicka! The 3rd to last performance! Practically in the front row watching Eden in all her extraordinary might 🌟 she will never stop being one of my biggest inspirations 💕

That’s barely halfway through the whole year!

5th anniversary celebration for Off Broadway’s Little Shop of Horrors with a special performance and Times Square installation of its very own Audrey II 🌱🩸 Closest I’ve have been to her since I puppeteered for her myself back in a 2013 production. A huge gathering of cast alumni were there to join in the special day! It was so fun to get a taste 😉 of and ‘s Audrey and Seymour before they depart the production on the 29th. Also great to see again; hope I can make it to see him play Seymour on his dates coming up next month! And also met for the first time after having some on off interactions on social media. While Little Shop is his first major theatre job he’s had quite the decades long career- you might have seen him play a rodent steamboat captain among others on or grew up with him as the one and only Bear in the Big Blue House! And now he has his very own solo r***e is set to open in March ✨
Most amazing of all tho was seeing composer right there in person for the festivities 🥹 so many of us including myself have been touched by his music throughout the years from stage to screen. Probably the most special of all, in attendance on behalf of his late collaborator/lyricist Howard Ashman were his sister Sarah and his life partner Bill. What a way to pay tribute to one of the most beloved musical comedies that will forever have a special place in my heart 💚
