Will eat my weight in Jelly Belly’s, ice cream Drumsticks, and banana pudding if given the chance.

Last day of AAPI Heritage Month and not a single post about it from @osfashland. AAPI-centric shows were some of their biggest hits in recent years. #Disappointing #CambodianRockBand #Vietgone

@SMCHoops @JeenaYi @mosessv @pacotolson @qui_writes Too kind! Would love to step into that role again! 🤞

[James Ryen @JamesRyen]

So what theatre wants to allow me to reprise my role of Quang in VIETGONE and POOR YELLA REDNECKS in rep? All I ask is that @JeenaYi, Amy Waschke, @mosessv, @TheWillDao, & @pacotolson are involved. Let’s make it happen American Theatre! @qui_writes #Vietgone #PoorYellaRednecks

@BarzinAkhavan The best times.

Merry Birthmas, @JeremyEisen1! Miss you dearly, my friend. Had rehearsal so I could only run 3 miles for you, but I know you would understand. Missing your laugh, and your “here we go” when I try and make a joke off of whatever is happening in the rehearsal room.

@HaHaScribe They’re a beautiful art form - think of how some overtures evoke emotions, mood, and feeling before actors even say a word. Hamilton, Les Mis, Sweeney Todd, Into The Woods, Spamalot, Wicked, Cabaret, West Side Story…amazing storytelling and music.

[James Ryen @JamesRyen]

@HaHaScribe Actors can adjust their voice, physicality, and hide underneath makeup, prosthetics, and costumes - but musicals showcase both the talents and vulnerabilities of an actor. You can’t hide when singing and dancing (often at the same time), and while acting with truth & depth

@JeremyEisen1 Sending you and yours all my Love and Light as you take those first steps on your final journey. I know perfect running weather awaits you, and I know you will be sorely, sorely missed, my friend. Until we meet again.
