Actress, writer, friend to spiders. Caught on a bramble near the Hollywood sign.


When you tell people you're an actor and writer, they usually have questions like these:

WHAT HAVE I SEEN YOU IN?

Sam Raimi's 3D blockbuster OZ The Great and Powerful and his pilot for Fox entitled Rake, NBC's Revolution (pic above), executive producer Steven Spielberg's Extant on CBS, True Blood, The Office, Parks and Rec, Grey's Anatomy and more, at IMDb.

Lucky enough to know about the vibrant theater scene in L.A.? Then maybe you've seen me onstage.

CAN I WATCH ANY OF THAT?
Why yes. Yes you can. Below on the right are some videos from work I've done, including the trailer to a short film I recently wrote, produced and starred in entitled Cash for Gold (so far an official selection at the Hollywood Film Festival, Florida Film Festival and Sonoma International Film Festival. Hello, wine country.)


WHAT HAVE YOU WRITTEN??

A number of personal essays, some of which are published on this blog, and some of which you can catch me around town reading aloud for audiences. A short film called Cash for Gold (see above). A television pilot you haven't seen yet.

WHAT ELSE?
I'm a pretty good cook, a really good mom, and an irrepressible fidgeter.

Be my guest and look around as long as you'd like. I promise no pushy sales ladies will bug you.

I'm glad you're here.

world premiere 'creation' comes to Los Angeles


We are three weeks into rehearsals for this new play by Kathryn Walat. I've worked before with director Michael Michetti at the Theatre @ Boston Court, so it feels a little like coming home. If you've never ventured to  Pasadena to see the work they do there, you owe yourself the trip. They are known for doing plays that are, per their mission statement, "creative, bold and daring," and they have an especially sharp eye for exciting new works. Kate's play is all those things. Also, it prominently features a lightning strike, heightened libidos, symphonic music and Tootsie Pops.


I'm collaborating with Boston Court marketing director Brian Polack in creating a video/Twitter diary of the rehearsal process. You can see the first two video installments here, and  you can follow the day to day, which will include things like links to the research we're doing on the nature of brain injuries, the source of creativity and creation itself by following me @DeborahPuette and the theater @BostonCourt.



"Creation" opens October 13 at The Theatre @ Boston Court. Read more about the show and get tickets here. If you make it out to the theater, email me here and we can say hello after.
