SOOOOOOOOOO... This kind of has nothing to do with acting (it does in the grand scheme of things though) but the Revival of Carrie - The Musical has just released the very first cast album of the hit/flop show!!!!!
This show has been around since the 80's and was WAY ahead of its time. It closed about a week after it opened on Broadway, and ever since has had a cult following the on the same spectrum of Rocky Horror. Bootleg Live Performances (Both cd and video), Libretto books, all sorts of stuff, and just recently did this show get re-written, and put back on Broadway.
It still isn't a hit by ANY means, but people who have been following this show for a long time are super excited to get a professional recording of this show!!!! Anyone who loves musical theater, or awful musicals, CHECK IT OUT! Here is the link to the Amazon page for the album: Carrie - The Musical

No Rest For The Wicked
So, last weekend I closed the show I have been working on for the last 2 months, "Geeks Vs. Zombies". It was a great run, had great reviews and met a lot of great people in the process! Hopefully some of the connections I made during the run of this show will help me in the future. This crazy career we actors have chosen. The connections you make mean EVERYTHING. You may get lucky if you have the talent, but when you know someone already that is in the business, talent is just icing on the cake (ex. Lindsey Lohan). I don't know how many gigs I have gotten because the person I auditioned for knew someone I have worked with before.
So, with one show behind me, I have already started my next one!!! No rest for the wicked, eh? Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood opened, and it is (from what I have heard) the best year in recent history. Last weekend i had a rehearsal, an employee preview, and opened to sold out houses on both nights of opening weekend. You know, the sound of screams is much more satisfying when you are working next to the Bates Motel and the Psycho house. ;-) I am a walker on the set of The War of the Worlds on the Terror Tram! If you got the cash, and you love Halloween as much as a fat kid loves candy, then you MUST go this year. You won't regret it. :-) Well that is all for now folks. Until next time... BOO!

Geeks Vs. Zombies: Part 2
Well, opening weekend for Geeks Vs. Zombies went SMASHING. The houses were pretty well packed, and they all LOVED the show. One fan actually bought a shirt and a poster at intermission, and wanted all the cast to sign her poster after the show!
We had a couple of celebrities in the house as well! First we had Christine Barger (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1417905/) and James Hong (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0393222/). Although James didn't actually see the show, he said he was interested in coming back to see it!!!!
So Some good news for all of you with money problems... For the next few weeks, we will be having a PAY WHAT YOU CAN deal on Thursdays and Sundays! Take advantage of this while you still can folks!!!!

When You're Strange, People Come Out In The Rain
Hey guys! I know it has been a while, I have been busy and haven't had much time to update. So here we go!!!!!
Universal Studios Update:
I GOT THE JOB!!!!!! Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios this October, I will be a Scare Actor! I don't know my part yet, but I have orientation on August 31st, so I might know then. :) So if you guys get a chance, come out and see me!!!!
Miceli's Italian Restaurant Update:
Well, I did my final audition a little while ago, and they loved my voice, and said they would love to hire me, but that they are over staffed as it is. The good thing is, that that they told me to come back to their open call audition on the 1st saturday of November! So its possible that I might still be able to get the job there!
Geeks Vs. Zombies Update:
Whelp, only 1 more week until we open this bad boy. We have a run through tonight (in the theater... THANK GOD) and then a tech day on saturday at noon, and final dress on sunday at 8 AM... and then that's it. No more rehearsal until we open on August 16th! I'm kinda nervous, but I think it will be alright. :) If you want to buy tickets, go to http://seatofyourpantsproductions.com/catalog/geeksvszombiesperformances and you can guarantee yourself a ticket, otherwise, you may get there and it will be sold out!!!!!!
Also, i just updated my website, and created a mobile website. For those who want to look. :)

Aesop's Fables
For any of you who are interested, here is a web series that me and my friend made last year. We walked into a best buy, and used one of their computers to record us doing funny things, then i emailed it to myself, and ran away before we got into trouble.
If you would like to watch the rest of the videos, click the link below. Start at #1 (or two if you watched the video above) and go in order. It's funnier that way. :)
The Best Adventures of Steven and Brian
The Moral Of The Story Is: Art is everywhere. You just have to go out and find your inspiration.
PS: If you would like restart this series, please leave me some comments below on some ideas you would like to see me do. And if you like my blog, follow me ----------> on this side of the page, or you can get it directly in your email by putting in the stop bar.

Trix Are For Kids...
One day... I will create a literal music video of this song. It will be done, and it will be glorious.
I just used Shazam to discover The Rain by Oran "Juice" Jones. http://shz.am/t51064814
