Ran around all day Friday - 3 auditions, popped by my agent's office to say "hi," introduced a friend of mine to another agent I know. THEN: I went to a premiere at the TriBeCa Film Festival - my good friend Y worked on this film and needed a date. It was SO FUN! To dress up, meet some new people. I even met the director who has directed people like Dustin Hoffman, Robin Williams, etc. The film was really good - I didnt want it to end - and I'm very proud of my friend - he is really moving up in the world with his career and is so completely deserving. He's good good people and its so nice to see him enjoying some success! There was a party afterwards - needless to say it was a pretty late night....somehow I managed not to fall down and break my neck in my 3 inch high heels....but my feet are killing today!
Tonight I'm going to see a one woman performance - a friend of a friend. My friend who knows this performer wants me to help her with some filming she's doing afterwards - some improv she wants to get on tape with the other performers. Ok, why not?
And I heard back from one of my auditions on Friday that I booked the lead part - its for another reading at the Actor's Studio. I'm fond of the writer, very sweet person - and the rest of the cast and crew I'm looking forward to working with. Should be fun. I used my southern accent since it takes place in the south - isn't it interesting that the things I ran so far away from - my southern roots and my Asian roots - are actually the things that make me unique and give me strength? The one person piece that I am writing is turning out to be an exploration of this recent discovery.
Here's to embracing who we are.... :)
