So- my play is over- and I am thrilled with the way it was received. It had been over 10 years since I acted in a show, and to sell out the majority of the performances was amazing.

So- the big question everyone keeps asking me is, "Will you do the show somewhere else?"

So after two weeks of doing my play- and having people tell me how much they are enjoying it, I feel complete relief.  Roger Ebert came on Sunday- as did Richard Roeper.  The crowd was loud and enthusiastic all weekend.  I am so sad that I took such a long break from theater- because I forgot just how much fun it all can be.

So my show opened last week- we had a sold out show opening night, and good sized crowds over the weekend.  It feels so good to be able to walk through my fears- and speak my truth. 

Yesterday- we had a much smaller house- but they were very receptive.  Time Out Chicago wrote a review.  I'm told they hate everything- so to get 4 out of 6 stars is supposed to make me happy.  I obviously have been out of this game for a while- but here's the link:

Sorry I've been MIA- I've been reheasing for my one woman show- which opens on Thursday night (see my opening page for details..)

It's so great to be back in the theater community and to be working with such incredible folks like the Route 66 Theater company.

I was really stuck recently with a writing project- totally lost-  and I was pissed because it was Father's Day- which I usually hate because that's the day my Dad died.  So I decided to take my dog for a walk and see if I could clear my head.

I recently had to go to Kansas City for a video shoot.  I'd only been there once, and all I knew was it was the land of Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz.  It's also the land of the tornado.

I was asked back to speak in Woodstock Illinois this week. I’d been to Woodstock only once before; it was back in January, and I talked to 300 women at the historic Opera House. We sold two boxes of books, and the response was so fantastic, they asked me to come back for an event that billed as “dinner, and conversation with author Jenniffer Weigel”.
