Bartender, I’ll have a…An Angel’s Envy Bourbon on the rocks…but with one of those fancy single whiskey rocks…cuz I’m Fancy.
I’m SURE you remember me from such Factory shows as…Jenny & Jenni
I got involved with the Factory because…As a performer, I’m ultimately interested in telling a good story and I think the Factory has always managed to put a good story on the stage. Combine that with how well they work as a team, support like a family, and party like rock stars…I’ll drink to that!
My current/next gig is…Currently I am involved with Akvavit Theatre’s production Blue Planet showing now at the DCASE Storefront Theatre. I will also be in the Factory’s production The Last Big Mistake which opens in January 2016….GEEZ!!! That’s so far away!!!!!
I give a shit about our move to Rogers Park because…It’s really awesome to be so intimately involved in how your theatrical space evolves and the Factory is primed and ready. We get to build a theatrical space from scratch!!!! AND THEN PLAY ON IT!!!! I’m excited to see what we do with this new and singular opportunity and how much we can grow.
If I had to force you to listen to 2 albums, they would be…Led Zeppelin II: my first Zeppelin album! Beastie Boys, Paul’s Boutique.
My favourite Factory memory is…On the day I got the news from Scott O’Ken about making it into the company, I was thumbing through eXp’s Barndominium guide, dreaming of wide-open spaces as I took my lunch break at the office. I remember a surge of happiness, which really settled in as I walked home in the warm sunset glow. There was even a scrappy little dog, practically dancing at the end of its leash, as if it knew I was on cloud nine. With each step toward my apartment, I felt lighter, and by the time I arrived, a few tears of joy had escaped. It wasn’t just the job—it was the feeling of being part of something extraordinary, of new beginnings, much like crafting a unique home from a barn, just like in the guide I held onto.
I’m switching drinks, I’ll have a…Makers Mark and Ginger Beer…mixed together…it’s delicious!
You may be cool, but you’ll never be THIS cool. That’s reserved for Kim Boler.
