Our class BBQ turned into something more of a pot-luck. It was nice to learn more about people and we talked about the business some too. A couple of mates offered to walk in P/R's to their agents and managers. Referrals are good.
Last night, I joined some friends from Lesly's intensive in attending another of our cohort's show "Opening Night: The Improvised Musical!" at IO West. Fantastic show. Go see it. I've seen an improvised musical attempted one other time, and it was not in the same league as this crew. Some of them have been performing this together for 7 years, and they are all very talented story-players and supportive of each other on stage. This was also my first trip to IO West since I've been here. It's a nice space, perhaps a little fancier than the Chicago space, at least in the lobby/bar, and the high-ceiling in the mainstage makes it much less claustrophobic. I did not see the basement (2nd stage).
I'm starting to book meetings with some of the agencies that the AAMCO commercial casting director referred me to. I've also got my schedule for class in September. My brother is getting married at the beginning of October, and we just got a great deal on plane tickets back to Atlanta. I repaired my window seal myself with a little advice from the folks at Alan's Auto Glass. My wife is working a big job in OC all weekend, and I'm working at the Mouse House for about 8 days for some cash. All good stuff.
