The latest from Himself--
Thanks to a little bird--confirmation re Abduction etc, 23 June:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’ve been leading a bizarre existence for the last week in Edinburgh; waking early, rolling out of bed and staggering in a coma to kick-boxing classes, grabbing some caffeine and then sitting in 6 movies a day only to emerge blinking into a variety of deafeningly loud and under-catered premiere parties. By the time I got back to my hotel every night I could barely take my shoes off before passing out and, seemingly, waking up 20 minutes later for the whole thing to start again.
As for all the other stuff – no, I’m not acting in The Great Ghost Rescue any more since I just couldn’t face missing yet more school plays and dance shows and weekends with my kids. I realised after the read-through that I’d been away so many times and for so long this year that I was actually dreading it. Getting stuck by the ash in volcano was the final straw. Miriam and Yann, the director, very sweetly took pity on me and let me walk away. As a producer on it I wasn’t too worried since it was clear that it was in fantastic shape with a great cast, script, design etc. Think it’ll be great and I’ll probably regret it, but I’m sure my kids won’t.
Apart from Skeletons coming out, work-wise, there’s actually a bunch of other things on the table at the moment and, being greedy, I’m having a tough time deciding what to do next – I want to do all of it! There’s a play, some telly things (English at the moment, but I suspect come pilot season there might be more American stuff) and Retreat may well go soon as well. My cup runneth over it would seem, although it’s perfectly conceivable that none of it will end up happening and I’ll end up sitting in a room writing or at least pretending to whilst browsing the net. Wouldn’t be the first time.
Hope that this finds you thriving
Love and luck always,
Jason x
