CALIGULA MAXIMUS

Please come check out Caligula Maximus.  Opens March 11 thru April 3rd.  I had a laugh today speaking with director Alfred Pressier http://www.alfredpreisser.com/ when he asked what I tell people what I do in his show... because I play a gladiator from a more primal German time who wields a wooden spear and proceeds to get an ass whoopin from 3 gladiatrixes... not to be confused with dominatrixes... but then again... they could be dom's just the same.  I play Incitatus a horse that carries the great Caligula on my shoulders, makes love to said master (a verbal confirmation... we don't really do it on stage! LOL!  Although if I said we did maybe that'll make for a bigger draw at the box office ;) and appointed to the Senate again by said master Caligula.

I'm ridden hard and put away wet so to speak.  So do come see. ;-)

Check out some pr photos that we snapped yesterday and click on the link below for all the info on the show including tix, cast and director bios, etc.

CAVEMAN TO CALIGULA TO BRICKS

Good stuff happening, good stuff.  I auditioned for a commercial as a caveman and got the part.  I had meeting with the top casting director for Law & Order a couple days ago.  Rehearsals for the musical Caligula Maximus are going great!  Every day the show evolves.  It's very cool.   I am lucky to be involved with some very talented people.  The show is full of life (and death ;) after all it is Caligula I am speaking of.  Great music, great voices, great talent.

Mr. Bricks!  By no means to be forgotten!  Mr. Bricks is the man.  Mr. Bricks is something very special.  His ability to persevere no matter what due to great heart and passion... no matter how skewed that passion and that heart may be. ;-)

CALIGULA MAXIMUS

Musical theatre by Alfred Preisser and Randy Weiner.  I mentioned Caligula a few posts back when I auditioned for it.  Well I was cast and today was our first rehearsal.  A musical and physical celebration of the over exhuberant Ceasar, Tirant, Deviant, Pervert Caligula.  I think we all know the jist of his story.  If not, look it up.  So how perfect that I'm in it?   I'm a gladiator, a guard, a horse... and maybe some thing more.  We'll see.  Like I said today was only the first day. ;-) Oh and my name is Serenus Aphrodisius. ;-)

Greater story...

While at rehearsal today a guy came up to me and told me how much he liked the music video Brick by Brick from the Mr. Bricks soundtrack.  http://www.youtube.com/mrbricksmovie  Swear to God!  Said he listens to it before the gym!  How cool is that?! 

Loving that I'm doing musical theatre and film.  So cool.
