Crossword puzzles. Writing songs. Spending time with my boyfriend Chris, walking through the Castro on a sunny day or a rainy afternoon, holding his hand and laughing. Tom Kha Gai coconut thai soup. Finding new reasons to love living in San Francisco.
音樂
Showtunes. It's my religion. What can I say? I love big bands and swing and 40s crooners (Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Perry Como, Bobby Darin). I love country & western music (again with the good story telling) and we love to two step. I do a mean Tush Push myself.
電影
I rarely get to see movies in theaters anymore. THe only thing I've seen lately was "Sweeney Todd." (Kinda loved it, even with Helena, though I dream that someday they will digitally replace her with Tracey Ullman). I loved "The Devil Wears Prada" and "The Queen" and "Pan's Labyrinth" last year. Guilty pleasure: "Sky High". Movies I Can and Will Watch Again and Again: "Victor/Victoria", "Nine to Five," "Waiting for Guffman," "Cabaret", "Princess Bride", "The Incredibles", "An American Werewolf in London" and "Clue" (plus ANYTHING with Madeline Kahn):
電視
HEROES, PROJECT RUNWAY, DEXTER, UGLY BETTY, BBC COMEDIES, NINJA WARRIOR, NATURE SPECIALS (ESPECIALLY PLANET EARTH OR ANTYHING ABOUT THE COSMOS OR MONKEYS), THE DAILY SHOW
I also miss those 1970s talk shows (Dinah Shore/Dick Cavett/Mike Douglas/Merv Griffin) where the guests weren't plugging or selling a book or show or movie or record but just had interesting things to say and were great conversationalists in interesting pairings ...
書籍
I love good story-telling: the "Tales of the City" saga, the HeeChee/Gateway books, Harry Potter (Wizard of Oz/Jesus/Oliver magic messiah hybrid anyone?), auto- & biographies, entertainment history, Tom Robbins; as a kid: "The Phantom Tollbooth", "Harriet The Spy"
currently reading: "Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norell" by Susanna Clarke
the complete Dorothy Parker and a book about the zombie wars

HOW CAN YOU COMPREHEND

[dance break]
A PERFECT WORLD!
DON'T YOU FEEL JUST DIVINE?
A WORLD TOO PERFECT TO BELIEVE!
IN THIS IDYLLIC SETTING?

WE'RE ON THE BRINK
OF FORGETTING AND FORGIVING?
A PERFECT WORLD! / A PERFECT WORLD!
A PERFECT PLACE! / A PERFECT PLACE!
WITH PERFECT DAYS / FOR STRAIGHTS AND GAYS ...
AND YOU AND ME!
WOW! It has been a long time since I updated my profile!
I'm an entertainer: lyricist-at-large, singer, actor, stand-up comic, producer, director and San Francisco's original "musical-comedy-cabaret-porn-star."
I just closed the 2008 Summer Cabaret Series at New Conservatory Theatre Center (NCTC) here in San Francisco with my latest solo show, called "I FEEL A THONG COMING ON!" It was a big hit and they've already asked me back to do another cabaret act next summer!
During the show I gave the audience permission to film any portion they pleased, and now the first shaky, blurry camera-phone footage has been released on YouTube! Soon I'll post better clips from the professional video we had done, but until I get the DVD, these will have to do:
"I ENJOY BEING A 'GIRL'!" aka "EMAIL FEMALE":
"THE GAY MARRIAGE MEDLEY":
"I AM THE VERY MODEL OF A MODERN HOMOSEXUAL":
A friend saw this clip of me on YouTube, from back in March when I was an extra in the Gay Pride scene at City Hall for the Harvey Milk biopic MILK directed by Gus Van Sant, which is set to open December 5, 2008:
我想認識： Generous Theatre Patrons and Broadway Angels who "get" what I'm doing and want to invest in me and (by extension) my shows. Producers & Artistic Directors from Queer Arts Organizations, Theaters, Cabarets or Other Entertainment Venues. Future Collaborators, specifically original "Broadway" composers who won't say, "Great lyric! How does it go?"
omg. OMG. are you ready? No really. are you? ARE YOU??????? ok. here it is:
it's like someone connected our minds! And threw in the bonus since it's a child- (Seeing that I LOVE CHILDREN SOOOO MUCH!) omg omg...not...getting...over...this for a long time.
