Director DAVID CRABTREE on LATE NIGHTS with LEXI
Hey World,
Life has been constantly on-the-go, never stopping! This week was filled with pre-production meetings for the new, TV version of my radio show! LATE NIGHTS with LEXI will now become a "Howard Stern - Style" radio TV show.
In addition, I was cast in the school play! I am so excited to be a part of the cast of Stages of AIDS. I was craving a dark role...and it's here!
Sunday, October 10, 2010, I have a really cool guest coming in the studio! I'm so excited to have Director David Crabtree!
David directed the TV show, Psych and the brilliant film, Broken Dreams. This piece deals with serious univesral issues such as fear, loniless, and uncertainty. Broken Dreams exposes the human condition. It resonates with me because I could relate to all of the major emotions that were beautifully shared by the talented cast. I like the music and it's easy to fall in love with the lead character, Johnny. Eddie Navarro plays Johnny. He is honest and likeable. I love Kelsey Ford's work in the film. She seems to bring herself to the role as her upbeat spirit lights up the screen. Nicole Gerth had an astounding performance. Nicole won the 'Best Actress in a Supporting Role' award at the Buffalo Niagara Film Festival. Nicole will also be making a guest appearance on the show tomorrow night!
Broken Dreams will screen at The Other Venice Film Festival on Saturday, October 16th at 1:30 PM.
