Ruth Tru | | TV Shows | It is a little known fact that I was in a 90s made for TV film called Danger of Love! | | Films | This is an interesting story. A mentor of mine, Britt Olson with Seattle Children’s Theatre got a call from Hollywood. They were looking for a young boy for a Tom Hanks film, Sleepless in Seattle.
He spoke highly of me and arranged for a phone call so I could talk to the casting director and meet the producer at 7AM. I got up early and hit the shower to wake myself up. "Hollywood" calls and my mom got me out of the shower. I go downstairs and pick up the phone. "Hello?" "Oh, hello. Can I speak with Jeremy please?" "This is him. (Oh boy HOLLYWOOD!)" "Oh... I’m sorry. I’m afraid your voice is just too low."

About me:
I grew up in San Francisco and moved to Seattle in 1991. A year after that I started getting into theatre and continued with it until I got my theatre degree in 1999.
I first got into vaudeville and clowning in 1998 when I saw the Tony Award winning neo-vaudeville show "Fool Moon" starring Bill Irwin, David Shiner and the Red Clay Ramblers.
I've always been a fan of silent movies and the great comedians like Chaplin, Stan Laurel and Buster Keaton. But it wasn't until early 2007 when I pursued vaudeville as a vocation. I lined up a few gigs. A weekend long stint at Spring Fair 2007 and shows at the Eugene Saturday Market. I've trained with Reverend Chumleigh, Magical Mystical Michael and have met a lot of amazing people in this business.
|
Who I'd like to meet:
You! Other performers of all arts, fans of vaudeville, fans of silent films, people that make me laugh and people I make laugh. Creative and open minded people and people who reach for their dreams.
