To anyone I haven't told previously, I finally got my first part in New York City. This feels like such a long time coming, even though it has only been 6 months since I've moved here. I guess it feels so long because the last show I was in was The Credeaux Canvas about a year and a half ago. The show is a sketch comedy show called "Something Outrageous" that originated at Second City in Chicago and has migrated it's way to New York City. It has a very cabaret/vaudeville feel to it. So for those of you itching to see me perform, here are the details.
Title: Something Outrageous
Where: The 45th Street Theatre (45th St between 8th and 9th Ave)
When: Friday 11/11 and 11/12 at 8:30 pm
Price: $25, but that includes free drinks before the show
Tickets at Smarttix.com and 212-868-4444
It's a very short show, only about 45 minutes. There are multiple casts and productions so make sure you get tickets to the 8:30 show, because that is mine.
This truly feels like the beginning of my journey. I am really excited that it has started after the last few months, I really needed this.
In other news, I have another audition today. It's for a musical...I am really freaking out about it, because I haven't done a musical since Godspell about 3 years ago. I have been watching videos from it to kind of remember what it felt like, and can't help but smile from all the fond memories. To those of you who are curious, here is a video.
Anyways, I am hoping that this show will start a streak of parts, but if not, at least I got over the hurdle of getting my first part in New York.
