Marguerites' Music Studio

Marguerites' voice studio, where the invisible is made audible.

Collaborator, conspiriter and vocal coach exra-ordinaire!

Worked with my vocal coach and Stripes collaborator, Marguerite Witvoet today, as I do at least once a week. My creative musical fix, my playground of invention, vocal workout, improvising and stretching sounds, articulating the future...I left flushed, newly inspired with great ideas to spin into my plan.

"The voice is the muscle of the soul", the Roy Hart / Richard Armstrong defination...is fully explored with Marguerite.(http://www.margueritewitvoet.ca/)

Nurse Rachette strikes again.

Played a Nurse on TV series FRINGE last week. Luckily my film editor friend Christian, who lives in Berlin, refered me to Louise Fletcher, the original Nurse Rachette, so I could get the hair right!

New York Here I come! My show bags are packed! Really, I bought a new suitcase last week and packed it just in case a trip came my way.

CONGRATULATIONS! Your production has been ACCEPTED, and on behalf of The Present Company, and the other volunteer staff of The New York International Fringe Festival (FringeNYC), we want to welcome you to FringeNYC. We have chosen you to participate because we believe you will make an invaluable contribution to this year’s festival. It is our goal to make FringeNYC the most dynamic festival possible, and we invite you to help make this happen.

This will be the Fourteenth Annual New York International Fringe Festival, continuing the overwhelming success of the first thirteen. The festival will begin on Friday, August 13th and continue through Sunday, August 29th. The interest in the Festival grows every year and last year 75,000 people came to downtown Manhattan to support the performing arts. The response from the press was tremendous and the community rallied around FringeNYC in an extraordinary way. And we all had a great time!

Received the good news today, my show Stripes has been accepted into the New York Fringe Festival, providing my visa comes through.
I am totally thrilled.
