Small Snippets from the Life of Jenn

One of my favorite contracts was Once at Buck's County Playhouse in New Hope, PA. They let me do an Instagram Takeover, and I had a whole lot of fun telling everyone about our show and the fabulous people working on it. 
So, it’s possible I own over 500 bouncy balls...
I am going to play this part someday. ◡̈ This is from one of my absolute favorite musicals. 
I was a non-union actor when I moved to New York City. At times, that was quite frustrating, as it was hard getting seen at auditions. I wrote this simple song as a result of that, and I still find it rather funny. I actually used it in an audition once, but that's a story for another day... Anyway, the song starts at about 25 seconds in, if you decide you want to skip my explanation. 
 Every now and then, I fail. Skip to about 1:15 to see a rather ridiculous one in this video. Over the years, I've come to believe that failure actually has a positive impact on my life. It is how I personally learn, progress, and become better. This is one of my bigger failures in recent years, and I'm risking posting it here because I learned an even bigger lesson during this performance: Audiences are frequently made up of people who want you to succeed. The audience at this performance supported me, sang for me, laughed with me, and made me feel better about being human onstage. If you want to skip to about one minute in, that's where the song starts to truly unravel a bit.

And that is something I want to remember every time I perform.
I've been experimenting with different cello techniques lately, and I'm rather pleased with how this song is turning out. I've decided to call it True Love. It's not quite finished yet, but so far, I think this is my favorite section. 
I've been directing recently. This was my latest show!
I've been learning new songs and recording them a lot lately. Or, at least short snippets of them. If you want more, check out my youtube page!
I write music! This is the end of one of my songs, and I'm rather pleased with how it turned out. You can find my music on all streaming platforms!
Sometimes I find magical places. I found this delightful tunnel while out for a walk one night, and spent a good couple of hours in there because of the acoustics.
