I am pleased to say I've landed the role of Bishop Myriel in RLT's production of Les Misérables.

We do our first table-read with the full cast on Monday.

I also took out the 1200-page novel of Victor Hugo. Good thing my character is at the beginning. 😬

I'm happy to say I've been accepted as the Live Theatre Co-ordinator for this year's Cathedral Village Arts Fair.

I'll soon be hounding all you actors, playwrights, and theatre-lovers out there. 😀

I first ignored this call as I'm musically impaired, then was happy to see it's the spoken version. Woo-hoo!

They need many actors, both speaking and non-speaking parts, so why don't you audition with me?

I'm on a few casting-call acting apps that announce upcoming projects. I've been lucky to receive some direct emails asking me to submit a self-tape. Oddly, most of parts are for an elderly man with Alzheimer's.

Do I give off that vibe? 🤔

We are the last family on Earth to open our Christmas presents, even taking into consideration the global time zones. We do not open ours on Christmas Eve. We do not open ours on Christmas morning nor anytime anytime that whole afternoon.

You people with birthdays close to Christmas: were you as annoyed and sad as my big sister was? Today she would have been 74 and still whining how huge my August birthdays were.

With the city budget fistfight starting Monday --with proposed Regina Transit slashing-- I again suggest my plan:

I had an interesting time today doing a Zoom table-read of a thriller action movie script with six actors, the director, and the screenwriter. It was mostly for the writer's benefit to hear how it worked.

Ha! Someone commented on one of my YouTube videos.

Wish me luck!

I sent in an audition tape for a tv show in development -- a workplace comedy of spiritual chaos at a luxury resort. I applied for a supporting role as a flaky wellness enthusiast.

Hoping to be called for an in-person audition. Shooting starts mid-Dec in #YQR.

-- not the goofy, grumpy old man version of Henry Fonda in the movie version.

It's said that James Earl Jones did a perfect version of Norman on Broadway in 2005: angry and helpless, scared of his increasing dementia, his witty one-liners not played for laughs.

Last week I auditioned for the part of Norman for a theatre production of 'On Golden Pond,' but did not land it. There was a heck of a lot of impressive talent in that room.

My hope now, as an audience member, is the character be true to the original depiction by the playwright --

There were about 30 of us in room auditioning for a play of five characters. There were four of us older men vying for the same role.

It was darn fun. I hope to do more of these to get more audition experience. 😀

For my acting resume, I have to make a few one-minute monologues. Take a look at my second one:

I loved being part of the theatre play of 'The Trial of Louis Riel.' It was such a learning experience and re-ignited my thrill of being on stage after all these years.

I have two auditions coming up and I need to brush up my skills at drloblaw.com
