Notes / Anecdotes | I played a character in a simulated movie soundtrack. "Hey, sailor, wanna buy a pretty girl a drink?" I was off stage and spoke almost touching the mic, so my voice had the scratchy sound of an old movie. After one performance, someone questioned the author Ted Harris. "What movie was that from?" Teddy called out to me and introduced me to Don Kvares. I got a role without auditioning in Don's play Modern Statuary. In Playstreet, I played a nosy neighbor, dressed in a housedress and my hair in curlers. |
