About
In this challenging time at the beginning of the millennium, while many thoughtful people are taking a moment to stop, breathe deeply, and evaluate their relationship with the universe, I find myself hurled recklessly into a creative frenzy that I seem helpless to control, and I am in great danger of ruining my skin and looking my age. The result of this manic compulsion is my life’s work, without which I feel there is no point in having a 21st century at all. That work is performing, teaching and training voices, writing, running a self-awareness cabaret program for teenagers, facilitating a cabaret for seniors, fund-raising for the arts by way of enormously successful theatrical events, and being driven by a determination to create connection in this age of communication. My partner, Doug Simao, is the brains and talent behind much of what I do. We also have an army of children.
So from time to time, I will be presenting bits and pieces of my work, after which I will knit each of you a sweater while you enjoy cake and cookies that I made myself. I have to go now. I’m building an extension to my house. Please read my blog. And please support my favorite non-profit, Team Cabaret.
