Of Method and Madness. Literature, Librivox, and Life in Downtown Portland. Wednesday, October 10, 2012. The librivox dramatic reading of "Frankenstein" by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley is ready to listen to! One of the things I love most about librivox is cross gender casting. I got to play Henry Clerval, Victor's childhood friend. And yes, I end up being killed by the creature. While it isn't a huge part, I had a lot of fun being in this project! And now some links! Want to brush up on the story line?

http://ofmethodandmadness.blogspot.com/2012/10/othello.html
Of Method and Madness. Literature, Librivox, and Life in Downtown Portland. Tuesday, October 23, 2012. Last Saturday I saw Northwest Classical Theatre Company's Othello! I was actually quite lucky to get a seat because the play sold out before opening day. It got a lot of publicity thanks to visiting director Bill Alexander, who has had a long career at the Royal Shakespeare Company and Birmingham Repertory Theatre. He did an amazing job! So, how was Othello? She was about to wake up! You came so close!
