I'm new around here! I posted already, but wanted to see if there are any other accordion players here? I'm an actor, and singer, and stand up comedian as well. :)
I like watching stand up, Jen Liv. I usually watch the older stuff. I'll have to check out Steph and Dusty. Thanks.
They are so funny and amazing. Dusty has a special on Netflix!
I have Netflix, Jen Liv. I'll check it out. Thank you.
Up in My Grill: Quick Sausage Bolognese - Try this when you don't have 3 or 4 hours to make the real deal - but Cap will give you the long version if you ask nicely. Music teacher Rosemarie Rhodes provides the atmosphere. (With McCall Schenthal and Jen Liv) Click MORE for recipe!
Jen Liv is an actor, comic, singer, writer and improviser...who also plays 16 instruments! She's also your perfect young mom, quirky tech gal, hopelessly single best friend, and awkward music teacher. You can see Jen's unique brand of stand up comedy all over Los Angeles at the Hollywood Improv, The Comedy Store, Flappers, HaHa Comedy Club, The Comedy Chateau and more.
Two books have been greatly influential to me as an actor. Sanford Meisner on Acting and Audition by Michael Shurtleff. Those two books I recommend to every newbie. What books have inspired or been most influential to you as an actor? What books do you recommend to a beginner?

Expand commentAlexandra Stevens I like Hagegen's book too. And there are a lot of gems in Stanislavsky's books. I have not read Sidbe's memoir, but I have read many actors. Michael Caine has two. I go to the libray and browse celebrity memoirs. That is another good way to learn about acting, reading the experience of others' Especially those from "old hollywood:."
The Lee Strasberg Notes - Lola Cohen
Building a Character - Stanislavsky
I really enjoyed Michael Caine’s book too! Great advice and very practical.
Those two books are fantastic! I'm also a big fan of Scott Sedita's The Eight Characters of Comedy.

I have dabbled in sketch writing, and have written a few scripts, but nothing serious. I would love to collaborate and make something together. I love comedy! Any other stand up comics hanging out here?
I have a series of short comedies that form a series. Any interest in making these?
