UPCOMING
Eggs
A short film by NYU student writer/director Joe Skinner
I will be filming the weekend of November 6-7 in Northern New Jersey.
The Rough - A Teen Drama Web Series
I love working with students, especially film students. They are enthusiastic and creative, they aren't "jaded" by the Real World, and they tend to be quirky. And I love quirky! I was recently contacted by a Hofstra student I worked with earlier this year, Colin Miller, saying he's filming a teen drama web series and thought I'd be perfect for "the loopy mother". Well, how could I resist saying yes to playing a loopy mother, especially one who is a Professional Psychic? Filming for the first episode took place the week of August 24th, and is now in post-production. The second episode is being written, and if the series goes over well, more episodes will be written and produced. For now, you can watch the the trailer. Please also note the music - Colin wrote and recorded it himself. He's one talented young man!

Dreamland
I was cast in an independent feature film called "Dreamland" being produced by Rashomon Pictures. The majority of the shoot took place in Newburgh, NY, during the summer and early fall. There is one remaining scene yet to be shot between me and my "son", and then the movie goes into post-production. The movie is a dramatic coming-of-age story set against the backdrop of the Iraq War. I will be playing a character named Angela. A trailer will be coming soon!
RECENT PERFORMANCES
The Seagull
Curan Repertory Company
October 2009
In this production I had the opportunity to play my favorite role to date: Irina Arkadina, a well-known actress of "a certain age" who thinks the world
revolves around her, and although she loves her son, Constantine, is
oblivious to his struggle to make something of himself outside of his
mother's shadow. The director and cast were wonderful, and it was a joy bringing Irina to life.
Comic Potential
Hudson Theatre Ensemble
April 2009

Lipstick Jungle
NBC TV - Episode 13
I decided to try some "background work" as it is called. I have never worked on the set of a network TV show, so I thought this would be both interesting and educational. The scene was a big engagement party for the characters Victory (Lindsay Price) and Joe (Andrew McCarthy). It was filmed at the Unkranian House on East 79th, an enormous mansion. I was one of the many party guests, but I was lucky enough to be placed smack in front of Victory and Joe during the toast, so you can spot me easily. I was wearing a black sleeveless v-necked velvet dress. I am also in another scene in the background, seated at a table. See my picture page for some stills pulled from the show.

Win Mick Jones' Guitar
In the fall of 2008 I filmed an AARP promotional video for the web. AARP ran an Air Guitar contest, and the prize was an autographed Mick Jones guitar which was presented onstage at a New Year's Eve Foreigner concert in Hawaii. The video featured Bjorn Turoque (say "born-to-rock".... get it?), an air guitar champion. Bjorn led an Air Guitar "Air-Obics" class of 7 men and women of all shapes and sizes...... one of whom was ME! Yes, I had an opportunity to learn air guitar - what a hoot!!!
