On the Road Again

I am now road worthy, passed my driving test. Just went through a battery of medical tests for the three month mark. Things couldnt be better, I am almost as good as new. Working on two new research projects to gear up for future shows. Going to start doing some traveling during the summer. Not many people get a second chance, I intend to make the most of mine.

Great Balls of Fire

4 years ago on April 2, 2005 SRL did a live show at Dangerous Curve in downtown Los Angeles. I am eternally grateful to have the opportunity to work with Mark Pauline and the entire SRL crew as well as Tim and Kathy from Dangerous Curve for their unwavering support. So much has evolved since then especially with the opening of Fringe in chinatown. I am extremely grateful to all the artists that ive had the good fortune to work with during the three year run of projects at Fringe in chinatown. I look forward to producing new and interesting projects next year. no doubt, the support and well wishes everyone sent my way after my medical emergency are what got me through. I am happy to be alive and well, and am completely optimistic about the future.

Sue's Mix from Ray Rapp

an analogy of catastrophic proportions

On January 9, I was hit by a truck and run over by a bus at UCLA Santa Monica Hospital. Despite all odds, I survived and expect to make a full recovery...with lots of therapy. 

I am touched by everyone who has reached out to me. 

For now my primary focus must be on my recovery. 

I cannot respond to any correspondence or accept phone calls. 

Comments can be left on the blog.
