Theatrical Thoughts

Time: October 20, 1991
Place: Las Positas College
Role: Leo
Director: Ken Ross

Ah, one of my most fondly remembered moments of my theatre history is in 'The Little Foxes' when my character's father asks me "Did you take the bonds?". I had been denying the thefts for several times now, but then decided that it was good to tell the truth. I have to say, it was a lot of fun getting a good laugh at that point. It was my first really big laugh in a drama. I must say it's pretty cool.

I had fun with the part that I got in the show. Yes, it wasn't exactly the part I wanted when I auditioned, but I still made the most of it. Even to this day, I still don't usually get the part I want most. But that's probably cause I usually want the biggest part in the show. Go figure.

Foxes was my fourth show at Las Positas College, but I was yearning to try other theatre groups as well. That's when I auditioned for Pleasanton Playhouse and my feet started tappin' (actually, they didn't tap at all in the first show, but many feet around me did).
