And So I Return ...

That's right folks I have returned to the world of Blogging and boy am I back with vengence! After a long break from "An Actors Blog ..." I have decided to continue to share my journey with you all. Yay! (Hope it's a good thing)
It's a little odd really being back. I have sort of fallen out of sync with everything. Forgotten how the old Blogspot works. Not to worry. I am sure the swing of things will return pretty soon.

So ... Wondering what I have been up to? Yup? ... And me, ha! You know, I really am having to think about it!

I thought I would put together a little photograph run of my time since my last formal post in September!

So here we go!
(Please click on images to enlarge them)

"Boogie Nights" with SSMTC went down really well last October at "The Grand Theatre" in Wolverhampton. It received some really wonderful reviews!

I directed "The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe" for "Screaminvoice Youth Theatre" in December. It was performed at the "ARENA Theatre" in Wolverhampton with a total of 7 performances.

I had a smashing Christmas with my Friends and Family.

 Newyears Celebrations were wonderful resulting in a wonderful trip to Cockney Land (LDN).

 I ran and directed a half term youth theatre project at Bloxich Library Theatre. Resulting in a performance of "Techno Tina and Other Terrible Tales."

I became a Box Office and Front Of House Assistant at "The ARENA Theatre" in Wolverhampton. A truley wonderful job.

I dabbled in a bit of hair modelling for Royston Blythe thanks to Emily Faulkner who was lucky enough to win her competition with this hair cut. 

 

 

I was invited by "Last Fancies" to help them with their production of "Death Of Georgia B" by playing Georgia B.

Not forgetting a good old Royal Wedding!

 

So overall a wonderful time spent keeping busy! Why not share with me what you have been up to in these past few months? Post some photographs. Anything really great happen to you recently? If so share it! I hope you all had a wicked past few months as well.

TO GET THIS BLOG BACK UP AND RUNNING OR NOT?

Wha'ts your thinking folks?

The National Campaign for the Arts decided to run this campaign after being approached by members who were concerned that the public had no way to make their views on support for the arts heard.
Using volunteer time and skills from our campaign partners (and not public subsidy) we have sought advice about the best way to reach as many people as possible who care about the arts throughout the UK. We know that there are a lot of you out there: it’s estimated that three-quarters of adults and even more children take part in the arts every year. Collectively you will be a powerful new voice for audiences and participants.
We want to be able to help you to provide support for the arts in your area. That support could be about volunteering or lobbying or even setting up your own programmes of arts activities. We’d also like to listen to you and your views to help us prioritise our future work.
We’ve set no time limit on the campaign. We hope it will develop and evolve over time. We will keep updating the website with new resources and keep in contact by email with, particularly when we have news of something in your area.
If you care about the arts, please do take the 30 seconds it takes to sign up. You’ll be in good company.

Show your support! Follow on Twitter! Visit their website!

I Have Been Thinking ...

My last post was a bit ominous I must say! Apolagies! I was fliming in a lift and just thought the set was pretty special so I thought I would share it with you all! 

Anyway .... Thinking .....!

 

Ah yes. I have been thinking about my blog and what it needs right now. And, I think I have come up with a solution. I think it would be a super idea to have a guest blogger once a week! Do you agree? I think it would be a great way to make "An Actors Blog" a more exciting place to be. Plus it will liven things up a little. You won't just hear my ramblings and so on. You would get here others opinions and views on things. In fact you could be the guess blogger! I am excited already at just the thought of it!

So ....

How do you think this idea sounds?

Would you like to be a guest blogger? You could blog about anything! If you are an artist and want to show off your work, you can! If you just merely want to express yourself, you can!

Let me know and hit me with some ideas! It would be really great to get this going! :-) 

Today Is One Of Those Days ...

One of those days ... You know the kind, the kind where you just cannot think of anything to write or talk about. Oh man! Think it is a lazy brain day. Never good as I need to perk up a little I'm due in a school at 1 with a drama project/lesson to deliver. Can't really afford to be a lazy bones whilst doing that now can I? Nopey!

Ah, just thought! BOOGIE NIGHTS is fast fast fast approaching! October the 5th to the 9th at Wolverhamptons Grand Theatre. If you fancy coming down or up to see it and support let me know. It would be great to see loads of familiar faces there. Come and see me in a fine fine fine wig making an utter tit out of myself in the name of art! 

 

Right so there we go I have muttered and murmered away for the day! Catch you all tomorrow when hopefully my rantsd and raves will be more readable and fun! 

Tonight Is The Night!

I know I have mentioned this before on Mondays post. But ... Tonight is audition night! :-) 

Do come along folks. Would be super to see you there!
