The Green Room / Re: Moving to fight off burnout

Hi Cedes ~
It sounds like you deserve some alone time!
And you are the only one in charge of your personal schedule - invest in yourself.
Take a walk in nature. Breathe. You will be amazed what 20 minutes of no distractions (turn your phone OFF) will do for you.
It sounds like you may have discovered an opportunity to do a little more for yourself as well! Congrats. You deserve it...

Tools of the Trade / Re: Steel toe boots?

« on: Apr 25, 2017, 12:52 pm »

Most of my work is as a PSM. That being said, I have a pair of steel-toes for when the situation calls for it, (most often during on-site rehearsals and tech) and a pair of comfy slip-ons so I can take a seat, take off my shoes and call the show!

The Hardline / Re: ARTICLE: 99-seat plan in LA

« on: Feb 24, 2017, 12:38 pm »

FOR THE RECORD:
I am not coming down Pro OR Con on this issue.
I wanted only to shed some light on the situation as I see it from the Pro99 side of things.
I wanted to give information as I live in LA, right in the middle of all this...

The Hardline / Re: ARTICLE: 99-seat plan in LA

Many local Los Angeles actors feel they should have the right to decide when and if they want to volunteer their services. The tradeoff, in their eyes, is quite sufficient; they get to keep their "actor" muscles primed, they practice their craft without paying for classes and/or lessons. They get to do roles they might not otherwise get to do, they get to originate new works and network with up-and-coming theatre makers.

Does this help?

The Hardline / Re: AEA SM wearing a costume backstage?

« on: Sep 02, 2016, 12:55 pm »

Does the ASM appear onstage in a scene other than a scene shift?
Does the costume inhibit movement in any way? Sightlines?
