So, yeah, this summer… that was a thing. Hampton and I both ended the spring with some killer shows and then it was all, well, life as usual. Snuggly puppies, tv, and lots of other people’s recipes. I may be in the midst of books 99 and 100 of the year, but there have been…

Sorry if you’re getting an email about this post twice. Don’t WordPress after midnight, kids. Welp, between tech for RAGTIME and Hampton going back into rehearsals for his COVID- and ice-delayed show, dinners this week were much more on the “get it done” side. EXCEPT: octopus. I had almost definitely never tried octopus before Hampton…

…three days, actually! The Phoenix Theatre Co. is bringing back I Now Pronounce You Dead for three special Vday performances. We start off at our original home away from home, the Pittsboro Roadhouse & General Store on Thursday, February 13. Tickets here. For Valentine’s Day itself, we are back to Summerfield Farms. A gorgeous wedding venue…

One of our regular Phoenix Theatre Co. castmates (and half of #jessip) has written his first full-length play, and we’re performing it this weekend at the Greensboro Fringe Festival. President Elect imagines what it would have been like on Election Night ’92 — 1892, that is — if today’s news industry existed then, as Grover…

It’s that time of year again — time for the Phoenix Theatre Company’s A Christmas Carol dinner show. This is my fourth season and Hampton’s fifth… so, clearly, it’s entertaining enough to keep us coming back. We have two seatings on Sunday, December 8 at our old haunt, the Pittsboro Roadhouse & General Store. Tickets can…

Summerfield Farms is having the Phoenix Theatre Co. back for another Halloween bash! We had such a good time last year in this beautiful venue with an engaged audience. Can’t wait to return! This time, we’re off to visit Madame Celeste — a “psychic” more con than kosher. And I get to play the wife…

UPDATE: This show has been cancelled. Leaving this post up in case you tried to get tickets because of it and are now very confused. And because it contains a good story (; Don’t worry – we’ll be back soon! *Scene, almost five years ago* Jessica: We need another woman for our murder mystery. Someone…

For over 30 years, Greensboro, NC, has celebrated native son William Sydney Porter — aka short-story author O.Henry — with Five by O.Henry, an annual, but ever-changing revue of some of his works. My dear friend Heather, also an executive assistant, occasionally mentioned that when she moved to L.A., she would give her boss my résumé.…

For those of you who I don’t know IRL or on other forms of teh Interwebz, I’m doing a thing! And by “thing”, I mean a dream role I’ve been practicing for since 1983. Yes, yes you do. Possibly over the sound of vomit and/or fainting. We’ll see. I realized from a very young age…

Over the winter, Hampton and I have discovered an appreciation for the humble bone in/skin on chicken thigh. Usually we sear and then braise with some sort of wine or cider and whatever veg we have around, but this weekend, as we wanted to use our new grill for the first time and we were…
