My first, and let’s face it – probably last – acting foray begins this Sunday evening. Don’t be Afraid of the Dark hits the stage at the Improv Asylum this week to I’m assuming awesomely rave reviews and soggy-eyed packed houses. This will be my final pre-play shuck and jive, and I encourage you all to come check out one of the performances. I have almost 20 friends confirmed to come to the Tuesday 7pm show – as that is the last performance and I intend to have a celebratory cockytail or two afterwards in a licensed North End purveyor of adult libations. If you want to come, make it Tuesday night and let me know so I can reserve you a ticket. While you’re making up your mind, have a gander at our first cast photo:
Let’s see… you’ve got the vamp, evil monster, ingenue, shrew, maid, butler, nerd, nurse, male nurse, lawyer and cop (me). And let me save you the trouble – I’m obviously also a huge nerd, just not dressed as one in this particular example. Listen – I know it’s a school night, and some of you will have to drive a fair spell to get here, but I want everyone to be aware and have the details should you want to come and marvel at my almost unspeakable narcissism.

Break a leg Dave.

Are you standing in a hole?

I was crouch-leaning forwards to stay in the shot, as per the photographer’s instructions. Folks attending the show will enjoy watching me crouch to make it through the doors on the set. Like it’s Hobbiton or something. The vale, or whatever those hairy little freaks called it.

The Shire. Just remembered it. When I looked down and saw my Lord of the Rings tattoo.

Tell the truth Dave. You secretly have a boner every time you put the cop suit on, don’t you?

Hey Art – “You know how I know Dave is Gay!?! He is in a play”.
Dave – the vale – couldn’t you come up with something better than that. Anyway – Tag’em In Guuuy!

Art – better the cop suit than having to kill drifters.
