Happy World Theatre Day!

May you overcome adversity, censorship, poverty and nihilism, as many of you will most certainly be obliged to do. May you be blessed with the talent...

Tumblr Guidelines
Looky here @ what I just read:
You have to be at least 13 years old to use Tumblr. We’re serious: it’s a hard rule, based on U.S. federal and state legislation, even if you’re 12.9 years old. If you’re younger than 13, don’t use Tumblr. Ask your parents for an Xbox or try books.
HUNGER GAMES!
may the odds be ever in your favor
Fast-Food Foodie
I am not a pretentious foodie just a fast-food foodie. I like to go out and try the newest burger concoction at Carl’s Jr. or McDonald’s and chit chat about how likely I am going to die from eating 3 more in one day. I’m trying this new column on the blog…
Yesterday I got the chance to go to Five Guys Burger and Fries (oooo it rhymes).

How Theater for Young People Could Save the World →
“…take a child to the theater. Take them all the time. And don’t “sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.” Lean forward, engage and start changing the world for the better.”
One of the most important reasons I do theater.
I’m such a sucker for OUTBREAK, best movie ever!

A few things I’ve learned after my first week as an assistant TV writer.
On scriptwriting…
DPU: - Stands for “direct pick up” and is used when you want the same scene you are writing to continue right where you left off, either after the commercial break or opening titles.

Every day should be International Women’s Day.

Women
Please, I beg. Let us stop defining ourselves by the men in our lives: our fathers, our lovers, our bosses.
Understand and value your self-worth by how you define yourself.
I am not defined by the love of a man but by the love I have for myself.
By the strength in my heart, by the power in my arms, by the thoughts conceived in my mind, by the ability to carry life, by the vulnerability in my...

My bio for FAIR Play
When I think about why I do theatre, in the simplest terms, I do theatre because it gives me an excuse to hang out with my friends. Here at OSF I’ve made a brand new set of friends. It’s not everyday you get four directors, seven rehearsals and one acting company to produce a full-length play in two weeks, sure it happens but not everyday. The OSF FAIR Fellows are the future faces of American...
