Pulling Leather

I had a great time in Pulling Leather and can’t wait to do another comedic role like that. So much fun! I didn’t even know I’d been missing the instant gratification of a live audience. What a blast!

Chasing Eden wrapped!

I’ve just wrapped on the feature film Chasing Eden, a dramatic feature following 2 teenage girls, Elise and Layla as they struggle to navigate their unstable lives. I play Lillian, Elise’s suicidal mother. It was a challenging and dark role and while I’m sad to say goodbye to the fantastic cast and crew, it’s refreshing to take a breather from Lillian’s world. 

Special thanks to the amazing group of people involved, especially my talented first time director and screenwriter Laura-Claire DelGrippo. Look for more fantastic things from her in the future. Also to Chelsea Van Duyn, the talented young actress who played my daughter. Check out still from the shoot at http://chasingedenfilm.weebly.com/multimedia.html

Stay tuned for more Chasing Eden updates!

On the Brink Episodes 1-3 available for your viewing pleasure!

On the Brink, the web series I’ve been working on is up! Please let me know what you think. It’s a super fun character to play and we should have more episodes for you soon. Enjoy the first 3 episodes of On the Brink!

 

 Her methods are ‘full of proof’…at least, she thinks they are.

 After being ridiculed by her colleagues, Dr. Penny Brink sets out to prove that her controversial  approach to couples therapy works.  Tad, a musician turned online stock investor, and  Ambrosia, an amateur poet / sex addict, agree to have their therapy sessions filmed by Dr.  Brink and her videographer, Ben, as part of a documentary.  But as lines are crossed and  ulterior motives are revealed, the project may implode before it gets to the editing stage.

Flash Mob Dance Attack

Today I participated in an amazing, joyful event. I was part of my very first flash mob. I and about 30 other people gathered today at the LA Zoo to surprise our friend, Eli for his birthday with a dance attack. What an amazing feeling, to have all these people give their time, not just for the dance attack itself but to learn and rehearse the dance, to celebrate friendship and life and to just celebrate! What an amazing time. Check out the video here:

I have a brand new reel up on IMDB

 

Phew! I’ve been busy busy busy! The web series, “On the Brink” is nearly ready to share! I’ll be sending out info shortly. I’ve also been in rehearsal for the feature film “Chasing Eden”, a dark drama where I get to work with a group of really talented actors, including Sean Patrick Flanery! (Boondock Saints, Saw3D, Powder)
In the meantime, please check out my new reel. You can catch a glimpse of my character, Dr. Penny Brink from the series. 
And if you like what you see, leave a message on the imdb message board here, won’t you? It’ll help out my star meter rating. 🙂 http://www.imdb.com/video/demo_reel/vi4226063129/
Thanks you all for your endless support!

Filming begins for “On the Brink”

Tomorrow I begin filming for “On the Brink”, a web series about a misguided, slightly loopy relationship therapist, Dr Penny Brink (played by yours truly). It’s a great story, told mockumentary style, in which we follow Dr Brink as she tries to help a “troubled couple – hey, that rhymes!” – get the spark back in their relationship.

I’m super excited to get started. It’s a great script and a great group of people. More updates to come!
