My News

February/March in Mexico:

It has been a busy time for Alan and I in Tlaquepaque, Mexico studying Spanish. I love being a student again, and the teachers are terrific, but wish learning another language at this stage was a lot easier. However, as we all know, nothing we really want to do well is easy. There is the Guadalajara film festival on now and hoping to catch some exciting films there. And Arthur Miller's "Todos Mis Hijos" (All My Sons) is playing next week in Spanish, so we intend to go to that too. Mexico, and Guadalajara in particular, is a wonderfully creative and culturally rich place to be in. I feel very blessed to be able to experience it. See you in early April!!

MEXICO 2010! Alan and I arrived in Ajijic, Jalisco, Mexico to celebrate New Years Eve. In the first few days of the new year, we were immediately enrolled in a huge fundraising project my friend Roseann is producing here. So, I became director of the first act of a Lip Sync show called "Wink, Wink, Lip Sync!" It has a cast of about 40 local personalities who have volunteered and I have had a lot of fun directing and choreographing them to do their 1950's songs with gusto. Opening night is tonight, so wish us luck! The event's proceeds will go toward improvements in the local 'auditorio' (where the event is being held) and to Music Scholarships for Mexico students. So - you see, I am not just lying in the sun here - but got put to 'work' right away. Lots of fun and for a very good cause! Oh yes - Alan is doing the opening number: lip syncing and tapping to 'Rock Around The Clock'!!

THE CALGARY AUDITION SKILLS INTENSIVE A BIG HIT in July 2009! And we are planning another for July 2010! Keep checking 'Classes' on this site for more details.

Werewolf Tango is now in post production and I have to thank all the cast (Lisa Ray, Chris Owens, Tom Mellisis, Roger Clown and Ronica Sajnani) and crew for making it such a worthwhile experience for me. The film is looking great and will notify all when it is going to air on BRAVO! Fact.

The Log (working title) documentary continues to be developed and more footage was in a small village in England in late June. More to do - more to create on that project!

I am always interested to hear what your latest projects and adventures have been. So, email me when you get the chance.
