It’s been three weeks since I arrived and there’s already a few updates to be had on past, present, and upcoming projects.
First off, thank you to Pan Asian Repertory Theatre and director Jeff Liu for bringing me on board to the workshop reading of The Brothers Paranormal by Prince Gomolvilas. The cast included Brian Coats, Danielle Greaves, Josephine Huang, Ching Valdes, Tony Vo, and Roy Vongtama. A horror, thriller, comedy, and drama all wrapped into one engrossing play. It was a great first project in the city!
Since then, I’ve been stage managing Columbia MFA directing grad, Nana Dakin’s, Uncle Vanya which goes up next weekend (Nov. 11-13).
My next project will be through the National Asian Artists Project (NAAP). Their DISCOVER: New Musicals series will feature excerpts from four new musicals which provide opportunities and roles to Asian American artists both on and off the stage. Auditions will be held next week on November 8 for both AEA and non-AEA performers.
And that’s the update for now!
Stand by for more.
