Gig Updates
Here is an updated list of what I am working on, and what is coming up in the future.
Armageddon of the Kippered Beef Steak (25% Shot, Delayed till January 2006) - Short Comedy (30 min.) about a man who is forced between killing one person in 24 hours, or allowing the earth to be destroyed. This lowbrow comedy is in the vain of South Park and the Simpons. I play a hip college professor who helps the lead contemplate the moral dilemmas he is forced to deal with. This movie is cursed but we are managing to push forward little by little!
Out of Alignment (25% Shot, Delayed till January 2006) - Full Length film about a pilot who gets grounded. I play a comic relief character. I play the small town cop with a bad attitude who harasses and tries to arrest the main protagonist throughout the movie. The star of this film Joey Gironda lives in LA, so the shooting schedule of this movie is determined by his visits up here to the frigid northeast.
A Means to an End (Fund Raising Efforts Continue, Shooting Delayed till February 2006) - Full Length crime drama about a streetwalker whose difficult life becomes perilous when she witnesses a brutal murder. I play a not so honest Captain of the local police force. The script is very good, and I am very excited to be involved. From what I hear the budget on this one is going to be the biggest of all my movies so far. I am also very happy that this movie will be directed by Arnon Shorr for whom I have great respect. His vision and directing style are amazing.
Pretty Dead Things (May 2006) - Full Length comedy horror involving vampires and government corruption. I play a comic relief character. A sleazy pornography director who has no limit to the depths of his immorality. This movie is written and directed by an excellent film maker named Richard Griffin. He has had two of his movies get picked up for world wide distribution (Feeding the Masses,Raving Maniacas) so I am excited to be working with him. I had a small part in his latest movie Seepage! which the distributors also have great interest in I hear.
SlamBoston! Play Competition (February 2006) - And lastly I will be on the boards once again in February 2006 at the Devanaughn Theatre in Boston. I have been cast in a short play that will be competing in the February SlamBoston! short play competition. I have not received the script yet, but I am looking forward getting started with this play.
Happy 2006, Don. I hope it’ll be a successful one
