A face only a season subscriber could love

Add this to the list of unexpected outcomes from this resumption of my acting habit – this arrived in the family mailbox this week:

Photobucket

It’s a promotional mailer advertising the Long Beach Playhouse’s upcoming Studio Season – and they’re using that little moment from Dracula in order to convey, in a nutshell, what the Studio is all about. I think it boils down to: “Like handsome? Like crazy? In the Long Beach Playhouse Studio – you get both!

(The Handsome, by the way, is my friend Travis Dukelow, who played Dr. Seward, and was ever-so-generous in allowing me to taunt, befuddle, abuse, and stab him every night.)

They had me on the poster and program cover along with the rest of the cast for The Odd Couple, but none of the posters left the theater, so essentially anyone who saw it was already part of the audience. I think this is the first time someone is literally selling tickets with my face. I question the wisdom of that (especially in the state it was in for that show), but how could I take it as anything but a huge compliment?
