Tonight was opening night for You Have the Right to Remain Dead and what an opening it was. For a Friday night during football season with many homecoming games going on, I thought the crowd was a decent size and it is very difficult to fill every seat in the venue. I still cannot say […]

No, not McDonald’s but the feeling this day always brings. Not sleeping much the night before (I think I finally got down about 3 this morning and slept until about 9). I watched Superman: The Movie to further unwind. I got up totally rested, totally excited, read my pal’s blog post sending wishes to Travis,
Yes, tonight was the final dress rehearsal for You Have the Right to Remain Dead. We had a few snags but nothing that will prevent us from having an AWESOME opening night tomorrow. We were instructed to come home, get a good night’s sleep, relax tomorrow (glad I have the day off), and look over
Tonight was our first dress rehearsal complete with newspaper reviewer and minus one key character from the production… UGH! I dunno… week of opening with 4 rehearsals to go and one of the major cast members is at a meeting but I guess it must have been important. So we had a fill-in read lines

It was decided that we would once again run lines. Quite often in these situations, actors are asked to read multiple roles. I ended up being three of the
OOOPS… wrong show… or is it?. Tonight was the read-through for my latest on-stage endeavor. I will say that reading the script with the actors (sans one) was an absolute RIOT! You Have the Right to Remain Dead is much more than an audience-participatory murder mystery, it almost plays like a melodrama. I believe I

WOW! This has to rank amongst the quickest audition results I have ever gotten. Monday morning at 10AM (mere hours after I auditioned), I got a phone call from the assistant director of You Have the Right to Remain Dead and was asked if I would like to accept the coveted, intrigal part of Harnell
Does this mean I got a part? If not, I will turn in my license to act tomorrow. Truthfully, I was the only male at tryouts. That is not to say that there were not other audition dates. In fact, this was the last one and the best time for me to go. The play
