Marci occhino biography books

I studied with a lot of different teachers at HB.
My first teacher at HB was Edward Morehouse. I took his classes for nine months. I adored Ed and did everything he asked me to. He was strict, but fair. Ed always insisted we see and read as many plays as possible. He loved when actors worked hard and had fun on stage. Funny thing was that if Ed liked my work, he would brag about it, and when he didn’t like my work, he would scorn me in front of the class. I didn’t mind, I just worked harder. At the end of the ninth month, I’ve performed scene from “I’m My Own Wife”. I played transgender man with German accent. I had a lot of fun preparing for that role. Ed was thrilled, he was beyond words of praise. At the end of the class, he suggested that he taught me everything he possibly could and I should go out and work as an actor. He also suggested, if I wanted to study more, I should find female teacher.

I went on to study with Carol Rosenfeld and A

Sherry Braun

We are back for more reviews, and mini-reviews, of the latest festival. Congratulations to all participants. I thoroughly enjoyed my viewing.

If you get a short review, the reason has only to do with my demands and deadlines that week -- not my interest in your project. I have also credited the sponsoring company in parentheses next to the title.

 

INFORMATION, PLEASE! (Tribe Productions)

Production designs by Studio 31 are clean and neat. The set looks great in this black box venue. Costumes are a delightful throw-back to the 70s. Music took me back! This original one-act play makes a full evening and is a perfect date play for a man and a woman. We can laugh at thes

Matisse in Nice: through an open window

 

We arrived in Nice for a long weekend to celebrate my birthday just as a summer-long tribute to Matisse was drawing to a close.  Nice 2013: A Summer for Matisse brought tillsammans many of the city museums to celebrate the artist who chose to live in Nice for more than thirty years.  2013 also marked the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Musee Matisse in Nice.

The Bay of Nice, 1918

Next door to our b&b on the Promenade was the Hotel Beau Rivage, the place where, on Christmas Day in 1917, Matisse first took a room in Nice and where he made the first of the countless paintings he produced during the forty-odd years he lived in Nice (with only a short period in nearby Vence during the war to escape the threat of bombing) until his death in 1954 at his gods home, the Hotel Regina on the heights of Cimiez.

The view from our terrace was almost identical to that of The Bay of Nice, 1918 (above), so that s
