This past week I shot a guest star role for a new dark comedy TV show called Oliver Grape. The producers plan to pitch the project to a major streaming site like Netflix or Hulu!
Great work by all! Here is a picture of my view from on set during the camera rehearsal:
I had so much fun playing Joe in the new short film, Punchline, directed by Joseph Redl of Capital G LLC. We began shooting on January 5th in Hoboken. The cast and crew were equally amazing in all of their roles. And to top it all off, I had so much fun putting on all of the special effects makeup to look like a zombie for the last scene. Can't wait to see the footage!
The first professional project that I worked on as a casting assistant has been released - a new PSA for #LoveHasNoLabels featuring real people named John Smith. I assisted on this project with Genuine: The Real People Company. Very proud to share its positive message! Check it out here!
We had a successful debut screening of Half Empty on Tuesday! So many people came out to support our project. With three festivals already submitted to, we hope for many more opportunities to showcase it.
This past weekend I shot a super fun project with my best friend, Annelisa! It's a promo for an upcoming movie that will be on the internet and TV! Can't give away too much yet, but will definitely share the promo once it's released.
My Commedia Dell'arte troupe, The Department of Fools is officially booked for performances at The PIT in NYC starting in February! Can't wait to revamp A History of Servitude with these crazy characters!
Tickets are already on sale here!
My short film, Half Empty, just wrapped post-production this week! This was the first project where I was one of the writers, producers and lead actors. My best friend, Peter, and I started working on the film a little over a year ago and now we get to share it with friends, family and hopefully some festivals!
Half Empty follows Charlie (played by me), a mid-20s computer coder who struggles with alcoholism and the painful consequences of his addiction in regards to his relationships and career. Official release details coming soon!
We had a great run of Bud and Blossom at the American Theatre of Actors. Definitely was a challenging show, but overall I am very happy with all of our work. Special shoutout to my amazing friends who came to opening night. They are so supportive with all of my acting projects - I couldn't be more grateful.

We had a great first week of rehearsals for the new comedy, Bud and Blossom! I play Vlad, one of the runaway bakers disguised as a tent putter-upper to make some quick money! He's clueless and always hurting himself lol. We open in November at the American Theatre of Actors!
Congratulations to Elle Fin Productions on the debut of their new comedy series, "Temporarily..."!! I'll be shooting my character's episode later this month!
Honestly, shooting the Halloween episode for Flying High With Charlie on Wednesday was one of my favorite days on set EVER! I love playing Charlie so much - his style of comedy and personality are so incredibly fun. This episode is sure to be a very spooky and funny treat!

This week I am in the middle of a run of The Captives at the off broadway stage at the American Theatre of Actors!

Last show is this Sunday!
