"Bennet" rhymes with "Senate" ;o

On July 9th I had the unbelievable pleasure of co-moderating a discussion with Mr. Alec Baldwin at HB Studio. Along with Aigi Vahing, my co-moderator, we asked Alec questions about his career, his craft, and various other art-related questions. He was wonderfully generous, playful, insightful, hilarious, and intelligent and I was thrilled to be a part of the evening. If you want to get technical, I have actually shared the stage with Alec Baldwin. I hope that won't be the last time. Woo hoo!

Have just been invited to become a member of Emerging Artists Theatre! Since my induction, I have been invited to take part in a staged reading directed by Deb Guston.

Directing the one-act play Half In Love by Joe Lauinger for the HB Ensemble. Aiming towards a late summer opening. This is a beautiful piece. I fell in love with it the first time I read it. Details to come.

Thanks for stopping by!

THE LETTER

The Off-Off Broadway Review
The Letter tells the story of Arnold (Cash Tilton), a successful businessman, who has a crush on a visiting contractor, Rebecca (Shaun Bennet Wilson). With the help of his assistant (Marc Castle), he writes a letter telling Rebecca how he feels. An awkward typo complicates things, but actually provides Rebecca and Arnold a chance to have some more meaningful discussions. Tilton and Wilson both do an excellent job playing Type A personalities who haven’t left much room for personal relationships in their lives.

"Michael Lazan's new drama, The Conjugality Test, is getting a strong production at this year's Midtown International Theatre Festival. Under David Gautschy's solid direction, and led by an all-around solid cast, this story is sure to be one of the festival's highlights...Shaun Bennet Wilson is alluring and sensual as Bernice." Michael Criscuolo

"Roberta on the Arts"
"Shaun Bennet Wilson as Bernice, the hired consort, is sultry, sexy, and savvy. She’s a predator extraordinaire, hired for a cause. The cast could not have been better chosen...The Conjugality Test should soon have a home in a theatre in town." Dr. Roberta E. Zlokower
