Hi Everyone,

It's busy time here in LA for me. With the holidays coming up and me in the middle shooting the film, "First Radio Pirate" which I also wrote. I'm casting most of the roles as I shoot from my film acting sessions conduct at the Rose Alley Theater in Santa Monica. I am still searching for the LEAD ACTOR, DICK DORWART...a Caucasian, three foot tall, wheelchair bound man, between 18 and 30 years of age. Also searching for a blind man, Caucasian, six foot, gray hair, handsome who can really sing.

News Flash: KEN LEBRIE has been cast to play the role of "Otto Francis" in this feature, "First Radio Pirate." This will probably, to most Hollywood Insider knowledge, where a son will be portraying his father in a true life story. This report comes from Sarah Stein, of Starcasters Inc.

Send PICS and resumes to my casting director, Sarah Stein at:

I also will be shooting retired basketball star, Blake Morris. He's six foot nine...so I'm going out to buy a taller ladder to get a level head shot.

There was an "UP IN SMOKE" anniversary showing at the Nu-Art Theater in West Los Angeles last month. I am always amazed at how many people show up for this thing and how many people remember my role of the motorcycle cop that gets stoned by the fumes of the marijuana truck.

My Film Acting Classes are held every Tuesday night, at 7:30 pm Pacific Standard time at the Rose Alley Theater. We are in preparation for the 18^th Annual Happy Variety Showcase. Actors and performers for the showcase will be selected from the workshops.
