The Door Named Opportunity

Donation protected
I began this fundraisser in July of 2013 with an original goal of over $8000.  Many people stepped forward to help me begin my first class at Waterfront Playhouse and Conservatory. Since then I have completed four levels of Meisener Acting Technique, two levels of movement, a Feldenkrais class, and two levels of Kristin Linklater Voice Technique. I am scheduled to graduate on August 29th of this year.  To this point I have managed to pay the rest of the classes with the help of an income tax return, reducing expenses, and eating a lot of Ramen noodles.  I'm in the home stretch and things are getting tight.  A little help would be very much appreciated.

I can't fathom quitting this anymore, or even postponing it temporarily. I am too wrapped up in the hearts of all the brave people that are on this journey with me.

Some discouraged me from starting this. Some people didn't understand why I would spend the money or time on more training when they believed that I already had what it took to get cast in shows.  I didn't want to just get cast. I wanted to learn to act at a level of depth and truth that I had only caught glimpses of.  I know now that I chose the right place to go to study. Rachael Adler is a rare teacher with a keen eye for seeing through the skin to the soul. This training has stretched me both as an actor and as a person.

I'm two-thirds of the way home and I will drive this car until it runs out of gas.
