If Ethan were to adopt…

Posted on: August 24th, 2010 by wmapother 7 Comments

As faithful, unpaid readers well know, in the past few months I’ve participated in several shows at the marvelous UCB comedy theatre in Hollywood.  In my most recent show there, SketchCram, one of the skits went well enough that UCB decided to shoot it as one of their short films.  (Several shorts a month are posted on ucbcomedy.com/videos).

The set-up, for the slower among you, is that I decide to adopt.  Happily, and then sadly, the adoption gatekeeper/Jacobite is a Lost fan..
It’s on Funny or Die here and YouTube here.   Or it’s here on Huffington Post.  If you’re into that sort of thing.

UCB Sketch Cram

Posted on: July 5th, 2010 by wmapother 3 Comments

So apparently I just can’t get enough of the UCB Theatre.  I was there a couple months ago for the ‘Lost’ skits, then last month for Assscat!, and I’m returning this Saturday night at midnight.

This time I’ll be performing in Sketch Cram, in which a sketch is written, directed, memorized and rehearsed, all within 12 hours.  If it’s like the other shows at UCB, it’ll be a fantastic time.  Hope to see all of you there — especially those of you from overseas.

Gracias a Lostzilla.net

A todos los cineastas lostzilla.net, gracias!
Con mi limitado vocabulario es difícil de expresar mi reacción, pero yo estaba muy afectada. Por supuesto sabemos que hay un público, pero al ver sus rostros y escuchar sus voces y ver su trabajo … Bueno, fue muy conmovedor. Y mi parte era tan pequeño — si después de enviar uno a Damon et Carlton, ustedes probablemente matarlos.
Para su consideración — y lo más importante — para ver Perdidos, por lo que me está dando un puesto de trabajo — gracias!
También 1:  Y you pensé que me gustaba España tanto como sea posible — hasta ahora. : )
También 2:  Gracias, Elena, por todo tu trabajo!
[Non-translation explanation:  Partly as a thank-you for the show and partly for the video I made for them for the finale [post here], some users of the Spanish ‘Lost’ fansite Lostzilla.net recorded a video for me (and all of ‘Lost’) of themselves, one by one, saying thank you.  It was very affecting.]
