Greetings all from the State of Ohio! And guess what Michiganders? They're not far ahead in the unemployment scale either! lol...I'm definitely enjoying and loving it down here. Cost of living has definitely been much cheaper. I'm so thankful to Ashley's parents that they've let us stay in the apartment till we can get things figured out ( Read more... )

I indeed have taken an extraordinary amount of time to write another entry. However, it seems like summer vanished right before my eyes. Granted, with travels to and from Ohio and Michigan, it doesn't take much for time to fly by fast ( Read more... )

So, another year of fireworks has come and gone, and with that, it's the first bloggings from me in about a month and a half! My oh my, how the summer has indeed flown by! I thought I would at least post something, so that everyone does know that contrary to popular belief, I am indeed still alive, and to use a "Rogerism" was not hit by a bus, ( Read more... )

So friends, I am officially done with Grand Valley State University. I graduated on April 28th, 2007 with my Bachelor of the Arts in Theatre with an emphasis on performance. After a career that started with being Cop #3 in Measure for Measure, that was followed by the shows, Fumed Oak, Big Love, Bard To Go, You Can Lead A Horse to Water, The ( Read more... )

Today I walk across the stage at Van Andel Arena in downtown Grand Rapids to receive my degree in Theatre as a Bachelor of the Arts. My official collegiate status after today will be Mr. Matthew Philip Tilmann, B.A. (Theatre, Grand ( Read more... )

Since I'm not sure if I'll be able to post after tonight's show and before Closing Sunday tomorrow, I figured I should maybe write now. Rocky has definitely been quite the EXPERIENCE. Even though my role as the Narrator is certainly a unique one in regard to the rest of the show, and according to the audience is the character you love to hate, it ( Read more... )

Well, sadly I didn't get the internship for GA Shakes. They sent me an email a couple days ago saying that they had completed casting, but letting me know that they appreciated my talent and skills and looked forward to seeing me at future auditions. Sure, it's easy to say that after the fact! Ha ha. But what's interesting though, is that old ( Read more... )

Well, it looks like I haven't posted in awhile, but really there hasn't been much to update. Still waiting to hear back from GA Shakes. Hopefully it'll result in something! But really, most of the month has been taken over by Rocky, and tonight is the long awaited opening night! The show just rocks...here's all the essential details, so please ( Read more... )

Ah back from the dream that was Atlanta. Such a wonderful change of pace from the drab winter scenery around here. What a welcome back to reality, leaving the 60 degree temperatures and coming home to a potentially nasty winter storm ( Read more... )

Made it down to Atlanta just fine. The weather here is absolutely GORGEOUS! I think the high temp today was 68? Tomorrow is 63. Clear blue skies. Ha, but alas all good things will come to an end in a couple days. Flight from Chicago was good...little bumpy taking off and coming into Atlanta, but we actually got in about a half hour early.
