crapdaddy  is in a production of "The Scarlet Pimpernel" and has successfully convinced me to come audition tonight.
I have decided to do so - but am going to submit an entirely farcical theatrical resume. I want to include credits on this resume that will get a laugh out of the theatrical people for their sheer implausibility - but still sound like credits that someone somewhere actually has. For instance -

David Van Osten - Serious Actor - Triple Threat
Lead Dancer - Modern Movement Review - Harlem Dance Troupe


Okay, update - I did it. Here it is, for your enjoyment!

I met you because Sheldon dragged me to the Riverside game, so it's not THAT small after all. :)

I'm playing Chauvelin. Of course.

I think you should come out to Los Angeles and see Davy and I act.

Of course. :)

I'd love to come out. I'm sure the two of you will be dashing, and I already know Davy can cook. And I'm sure you two would arrange for me to drape myself over the center balcony. So all I need is that private jet to just wisk me over there. Silly, pesky lotto for not providing. Sheesh.

You should also claim to have played Othello. I'd say at the Stratford Festival, but I don't know how well know that is in the LA theatre scene. medium well?

You could also claim to be 'Second Frenchman kicked in the groin' in one of the Sharp flicks...

Oooh, that's good.
I gave myself the credit "Singing Octopus / Swashbuckling Otter" in "Muppet Treasure Island" - and I've also claimed to study stage combat at the Beijing National Chinese Opera.

You should pick a random children's television show and give yourself the title "Stunt Consultant."

I didn't include that one, since it's been done. :)
by the way - he has a radio show out here - one of those AM, ultra-conservative call-in shows. I heard him going on about the nobility of purpose in Iraq, and couldn't quite place the voice, until it hit me. Garibaldi!

I will say this - for an ultra-conservative radio show, he was not shrill, irrational, or unkind - just very ideological. that was a relief.
