Hi all! A friend recommended I join Stage 32 so here I am! Pursued the acting career for a long time in the Bay Area, then went to grad school at The Theatre School, DePaul University in Chicago. Moved to LA in 2000 to pursue and the best part about my career here was meeting my husband at a Shakespeare audition. Slowly have been getting into production and created a daytime talk show and game show that I'm pitching. It's awesome meeting new people and there's always something to learn. Nothing to lose, only wonders to gain, and I'm psyched to be on the journey. While pursuing these creative endeavors, I run the house, chase down my 5 year old son, write a blog, and walk the dog. Never a dull moment here. Looking forward to connecting with others at Stage 32 and wish everyone a fabulous weekend. Cheers!

Welcome Melanie! I also moved to LA from the Bay Area and know this is precisely where I'm supposed to be. I'm an author of six published books, currently working on #7. I'm also working on a few film projects of bringing my stories to the big screen. Please let me know how I may support you in any way. www.CaliGilbert.com
I use to live in LA, if you are still there, you might want to think about going to a try out or class at UCB. I met a TON of cool people there. This was 2007, so I guess a bit has changed.

Cali, thanks for the welcome. So sorry to have missed this post. Hope you had a fantastic weekend. Where in the Bay Area did you live? Congrats on all the books! That's awesome. Will take a look at your website. Have a great week! James, I've heard of UCB. Wish I had time for classes, but too much on the plate as it is. Hope you have a great week, too!
I lived in Sausalito Melanie, now in Santa Monica. LOVING the beach :) Hope you have a great week as well.
