You just have to go to bat and take a swing. And if you're not right for a part, or it goes to a British man, they may remember that you showed up, knew your lines and were good. And maybe they'll call you in for something else.
You get callbacks, and they either give it to what they call a 'name' performer, or they decide to go in an entirely different direction.
I just want to keep at it. I can't wait to see, after years of being around, the roles I can play when I'm a crazy old lady.
It's valuable to me as an artist and actor to explore all kinds of outlets. So if a local filmmaker in Milwaukee had a good story, I'd be part of it in a second.
I love dive bars, old movie theaters, live music and good food. The simplest things in life for me are the most important.
