SantaLand Diaries...

So, as you might surmise from yesterday's quote (not to mention a month's worth of only clip-of-the-week posts), I have been a mite bit busy lately. In addition to the aftermath of the election season, I have finalized the divorce, undergone a huge shift in work, switched through three holidays, and have been memorizing 25 pages of dialog for a one-man show.

The show, David Sedaris' SantaLand Diaries, opens tonight. (Click the link to go to NPR's page--SLD is on the list of available streaming audio.)

In addition to the work of an actor, I have also been working overtime on promotional stuff as well. (There are only two of us producing this baby.) I have been interviewed on the radio twice, helped set up a website (crazyelves.com) and helped spread the word. The local paper had a huge spread on the show a couple weeks back--they had me featured on the front cover of the Arts section in Sunday's paper. We also shot a Vblog about the show that is rather cute--here 'tis, for your edification and possible enjoyment:

A special thanks/shout to Cara, who has been undergoing the same dry spell as I have, apparently. I checked her blog recently and was inspired to get off my (writing) ass and post something for you, so you didn't think I had just fallen into a hole.
