Rachel B’s Kicking Ass
From our ass-kicking Rachel in Atlanta:
Rachel Bodenstein has been making a living for the
past two years as an actor and director working out of
Atlanta.
Rachel was recently cast as the new character, Madison
Mouse, for the Emmy Award Winning Children’s Program
“Page Turner Adventures.” She will be performing
alongside Riley Roam (Fox TV’s Children’s News
Anchor), Kenny Mikey (ex-Advance Clown for Ringling
Bros. Circus) and Jim Hammond (”Lion King” National
Tour.) Filming will begin in October in Ft.
Lauderdale.
She recently performed the role of Chava in “Fiddler
of the Roof” for Jewish Theatre of the South, which
the AJC called “the season’s best musical.”
Since closing the show, she has been touring the
country directing “Life on Campus.” This is her second
year direcing the show. The tour currently has her in
DC, where she had a fabulous happy hour(s) with the
phenominal Eleanor Morrison.
She will next direct the show in Vermont.

I had no damn idea this blog existed. Great. Another reason to procrastinate. Anyways, to that end, I wanted to drop a line and say hello to everyone. I hope all is well. I keep hearing about Fat Black…and it makes me very anxious to get back to NYC. As for me, here is my very quick update:
My wife and I moved to L.A. 8 months ago. In that time, I have been fortunate enough to be offered membership in an Equity House out here, and I recently completed a succesful run there as the lead in a Stoppard show. From that, I was invited to audition for a film. They wouldn’t tell me what it was, but I read several times, and during the middle of this summer, I got to shoot at Universal Studios for Creepshow 3. (Auspicious. I know.)But, I DID get to have my own trailer for three weeks. Which is totally braggable. That got me a writer’s and producer’s credit for an upcoming pilot in development at Showtime. (I also got one of the lead roles, so that’s sweet.)Finally, my dream is coming to fruition: It looks like I have an offer to mount the long-gestating play…Ishtar:The Musical. I know you’re jealous. Cuase Ishtar is comedy gold. Hey, if they can make a musical about Debbie Doing Dallas, then whatever. In summation, things are great out in L.A.
Mostly because everybody out here is untrained and wants to be on Survivor.
