Just an update to my last post. I got word from Simon today that he wants me to play a small role in the performance. Needless to say I was totally shocked.
Of course, I am excited. I’ve never been in a play before, unless you want to count the parts I had in kindergarten. The most exciting thing about this first experience is that it will be – should I call it – an off-Broadway play right in the theatre district of Manhattan. BRILLIANT!
I need to thank Simon for having faith in me. I’ve acted before, if you call working as a gangster on the Great Movie Ride in Disney’s Hollywood Studios acting. But trusting me with this task, even if it is a small part, is something powerful.
The only difficult thing about this is that I will not be up there for all of the rehearsals. I did, however, change my plane reservation so that I would be up there until the 7th instead of leaving on the 5th. Getting there on the 30th will allow me a couple of rehearsals before the play starts on the 2nd. Crunch time!
About ed
I was born and raised in Tallahassee until 1993. There I was raised to love God, Family and the Seminoles, in that order. After meeting a gorgeous girl in 1992 from Jacksonville, where my family had moved to in previous years, I decided to move to Jacksonville where I lived for four years until that gorgeous girl and I decided to move to Orlando. I’ve been living in Orlando with that gorgeous girl since 1997 and still love her and the city. My only major complaint about Orlando is the weather (it’s hot, people, too hot). I have no complaints about her – I love you, baby .
I work in the Technology field as a Systems Administrator working with Windows servers and Cisco networking. Because I love my career so much I enjoy technology outside of the work place also. When I’m not exploring new tech gadgets, working on my computers, or tweaking my local home network, I generally enjoy video games, movies, reading and spending time with my family. And when I am not doing all of that, I also work as a consultant for my technology consulting company, EC Technology Consulting, LLC.
To sum it up, I’m a tech geek.
Dude – This is awesome! Congrats! I hope you have a great time! Do you know if Ravenface is having any of the performances taped? I’d love to see it.

I had originally planned on taking my camcorder to record one of the shows. Since, at the beginning, I knew I was going to be helping in some way, I was going to buy a tripod while I was there so I would not have to rely on someone holding the camera the entire show.
I am definitely going to be recording it now. Whoever wants, I will be making DVDs when I get back to hand out to friends and family.
That’s pretty cool man, congrats.
