Hey, I Know a Guy...
It's funny how things go in cycles. Just a few days after seeing and auditioning with a friend from Ten Little Indians, I saw a Comcast commercial featuring a former castmate with Mr. T no less.
Brian and I were in a "Shakespeare in the Park" production around the same time I did Indians. The Comedy of Errors was and remains one of my favorite acting experiences. It reinvigorated me as an actor at a time when I really needed it. It was a production with many challenges but I have nothing but fond memories of it.
Thanks to the wonders of the Internet and email, I was able to connect with Brian and a few days later he told me that he'd just gotten a nice part in a major Jerry Bruckheimer movie. He'll be acting opposite Academy Award-winner Jon Voight.
How cool is that? Anything is possible in this town, you just have to stick with it long enough.
