Hello, everyone!
It's been a busy year! (And I promise
never to let it go this long again without reporting!) I spent 10 days
last June on a cruise ship on the Carribbean enjoying the sun and shooting
films! The first one was Harriet's Wave (you can check it out in my
media section if you haven't seen it before) and the second one was called
IVATNRA (Island Vacationers Against The NRA). In IVATNRA I played a
totally improvised multiple personalities freak who was really actually
AGAINST IVATNRA, the group I was pretending to be a part of! I ended
2007 with a bang in The Sierra Madre Playhouse's Production of The Lion, the
Witch and the Wardrobe where I had a blast playing Mrs. Beaver. I also
began performing with "One Night Stands", a show about, well, one night
stands, where I get to sing my original songs. (Check out the review
in my press section!)
Cut to 2008...I finally finished writing the
script for my original musical, "College The Musical: A Musical About
College." This show has been brewing for the last several years.
I took the comedy songs of my husband, Evan Wecksell and my own comedy songs
and wrote a script that follows the lives of Amy, college freshman, Ray the
RA and a slew of hilarious characters (all parts played by Evan and
myself!)! We mounted our show in February at the Actors' Playpen in
west Hollywood. Lynsey Bartilson directed and it was a huge success!
Starting in September Evan
and I will tour colleges all over the country with our two person show.
I am ecstatic about it. For more info about the show, to purchase the
soundtrack or to see our tour schedule (schedule to be posted this summer)
please go to

Lastly, I have started creating new characters
for the TV show that I will create once the College tour is complete!
