Some of you may have seen it coming for years now, but this past summer I had the opportunity to play Puck in my very first production of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. And what a dream it was! I got to shave my head, jump from a 20 foot tree, and prance around topless with a bunch of fairies! We performed the show outdoors in Barcelona’s Parc de la Ciutadella (kinda like New York’s Central Park). When about a hundred and fifty people showed up to opening night, we were happy. We had expected a bit more, but that sure was a nice size audience. When a little over two hundred people showed up to the next night’s show, we were very happy. Now this was the type of audience we had been hoping for. But when over three hundred people showed up to closing night, we were euphoric. Amongst the cheering throngs was an agent who approached me after the show an asked if I was interested in being represented. I kindly accepted and now am sent on dozens of castings in which I sit in waiting rooms with millions of incredible looking actors and listen as my self-esteem slaps its face against the cold tile floor. Oh well, so is the life.
