Introduce Yourself : Actor and Long Winded Story Teller by Keith Rafalko

Keith Rafalko

Actor and Long Winded Story Teller

So far I have been part lurker and part contributor. I currently reside in NC, born and raised in NJ. I had done a lot of theater and stage through the early years of my life. I gave everything up about 16 years ago when finding out I was about to be a father and needed to provide. Over the years I could not get the itch that I had for performing. I made a decision in 2011 to go back after what I was most passionate about. I dropped everything including a very good high paying job to pursue my dreams and passions! When I go on my death bed I wanted to be able to say at least I tried and chased down what made me the happiest. I have always had a passion to express myself through my performances, over the last year and a half I have found another creative out to express myself through writing and story telling. I have taken many classes on screenplay over the past year. Been working on a teleplay for the last year that I have created. I am enjoying Stage 32 so far and looking forward to contributing, networking, and lurking (stalking) some of your future posts.

Howdy from neighboring Tennessee, Keith! I salute you for taking that big chance at gaining self-fulfillment. I remind myself sometimes that even if the worst happens, there are worse things than dying young.

Keith Rafalko
