A break? What's that? There's no time for breaks here at USC - we're already on to the next show! Tonight is our Designer Show & Tell and then the first read-thru of the play. I can already tell that Napoleon is going to be a huge challenge for me. It's been a while since I've gotten to play a "bad guy", and Napoleon goes through a lot of changes just in Act 1. This semester is definitely stretching me with Balance and now Animal Farm! Also, did I mention this is the MUSICAL

Balance is closed :( What an incredible experience. Not only do I feel like I grew so much in terms of being present on stage and using my whole body to be expressive, but I got to spend time making art with some of the greatest people. This show was such a gift and I will really miss the thrill of performing this show. Here are some pictures of closing (thanks to my sweet Alex):

Today is the day! Balance is opening tonight and I could not be more excited (and nervous)! This has been such an incredible process and it's been such a joy to work with this amazing ensemble and our brilliant leaders, Steve and Robyn. I can't wait to share this with an audience tonight :)

So...just for fun, here's my most recent audition video, submitted today for the Texas Shakespeare Festival's summer season. Enjoy!
