After a second workshop round, we had another reading of "Reporter Girl", about the very first syndicated female comic strip writer, Dahlia "Dale" Messick who wrote "Brenda Starr Reporter". I was reading the roles of C.D. Bachelor (famous cartoonist of his day, mentor and lover to Dale) and Mystery Man (Brenda Starr's mysterious love interest)

Delta has established a reputation for entertaining in-flight safety videos. It appears they're also going to establish a reputation for quick turnover- I shot a new one for them set to appear in Nov 2013. You really do need to know where the nearest emergency exit is.

Well worth the wait. The series seems incredible and it was thrilling to finally see it up on screen.
I play VP Matthews' Chief of Staff. A few shots in the Oval Office and then walking him through the White House, briefing him on his schedule.

Here's to more. And i finally get to use the right image :)

Normally, when I say I'm having a heart attack around a gig, I'm being facetious. Not quite this time....

The director is the award-winning Iris Shim and I have the pleasure of working with C.S. Lee

I play Greg, a father who's concerned about his daughter's mysterious illness. Rightly so...]]><![CDATA[Workshopping a new play about "Brenda Starr Reporter"]]>Tue, 09 Oct 2012 04:07:20 GMThttp://www.simonfeil.com/1/post/2012/10/workshopping-a-new-play-about-brenda-starr-reporter.html

Theater and film have always been my favorite ways to learn. I'll admit that this was one of the Sunday comic strips I skipped as a kid, but it turns out it was written by one of the first female comic strip writers, Dale (Dalia) Messick! And that Ms. Messick's grand daughter is a playwright who I'd worked with a few years back and is now writing a play about Brenda Starr- and it's gotten some attention. More to come...
