🍭 fu*k around and find out (pt. 2)🍭
🍭I wanted to play with double exposure and this turned out 𝕔𝕠𝕞𝕡𝕝𝕖𝕥𝕖𝕝𝕪 different than I expected, but that’s 𝕠𝕜𝕒𝕪
🍭 Sometimes I feel 𝕗𝕠𝕠𝕝𝕚𝕤𝕙 for putting so much energy into my art, whether that’s acting, writing, or photography, but there’s something inside me that 𝕜𝕟𝕠𝕨𝕤 I wouldn’t be content trying to do anything else
🍭 So I guess I’ll 𝕥𝕣𝕪 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕥𝕣𝕪 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕔𝕙𝕒𝕟𝕘𝕖 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕘𝕣𝕠𝕨 until it’s time to do something else or until I get tired
🍭 I think the connection here is “fuck around and find out” not just with drawing on your face, but also in pursuit of what you want to 𝕕𝕠 with your life and 𝕓𝕖𝕝𝕚𝕖𝕗 that 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕔𝕒𝕟 𝕕𝕠 𝕚𝕥✨

Isaac Gomez’s Wally World, a two act radio play, dropped TODAY via Steppenwolf Theater Company.
“It's Christmas Eve and a group of Wally World employees are about to lose it. On the one day of the year the mega-department superstore is supposed to close its doors, secrets come to life that may destroy more than their holiday cheer. Their manager Andy is doing everything in her power to keep her store in line and her employees in check. But can hard truths from her past ruin everything she's ever worked for? Wally World is a festive, poignant examination of finding magic in the mundane as 10 employees do everything they can to find purpose in a place that has never seen purpose in them.”
I remember seeing a staged reading of this piece at Victory Gardens back in 2017 with Sideshow Theater’s Freshness Initiative and can’t wait to listen. I’ve been playing Isaac’s playlist in the background non-stop, relishing the sugar coated nostalgia of Christmas pop music. Isaac is such a talented playwright and I love how authentic his works are. Consuming plays set in blue collar environments hits home for me and Isaac elevates these landscapes in such beautiful, honest ways.
Also, this cast is PACKED with T A L E N T.
