As November comes to a close, I am preparing to celebrate American Thanksgiving with my family and also… my birthday! More importantly, as the end of the decade also nears, this is a time to look back at the past ten years and think about what we are truly grateful for. Did you know that 2020 is my tenth year in London?
This year I was back on the stage
As I mentioned last month, 2019 was a year of performing monologues. A few weeks ago, I performed solo in “One from the Heart”. I so enjoyed my character and how the play I was in made the audience question themselves. A magical moment was when in rehearsal, two days before the show, I went through the text once more, letting it all hang out. This led to a new understanding of certain lines and opened up my movement. That’s what they mean by the beauty of rehearsal time.
Speaking of monologues, some of you may remember that I played Carol Cutrere in Orpheus Descending last Spring. I finally put one of her speeches on tape, which you can watch on the left.
French scene
I will be shooting a French scene that I wrote in early January alongside Axel Kengne which I am very excited about. The crew is just forming now.
New agent
Following the Monologue Slam, I met with Michael Moor from RD Casting who is now representing me as an actress. Expect new images and promotional material soon. Let’s go!
