IT HAS BEEN FORETOLD

I feel like bakers are trying to tell us something, you guys.
I'm just not sure WHAT.
Speak to me, Deadpan Penguin! *What is it?* What's wrong?

Murder Myster Solved by locals!
I got to do something very cool for the first time this weekend - perform in a murder mystery! I was hired by Mystery By Design to perform an exciting golf related murder mystery at the Hollister Ridemark Country Club. It was a blast! I've done interactive theater before, but never anything quite like this. The method to the acting is completely different than stage acting, so I was very fortunate to have some great coaches & fellow actors to help me transition from the stage to the floor. The biggest difference from stage acting is that you need to always try to keep two tables distance between you & the other actors you're interacting with. This was awkward rehearsals, but once you're there with an audience it seemed the only natural way to include them in the fun. The audience was incredible - hanging on nearly every word, interacting with all of the characters and excited about figuring out. The only, well, strange thing that happened was a woman in the audience decided to reach up and tickle my arm pit while I was pointing at someone and delivering a line. It was a bit distracting! The audience was wonderful and the country club treated us really well. I do hope I'll get another opportunity to work with this group, since it was such a thrill to perform again.
