The smash hit “A Steady Rain” by Keith Huff has been launched for a third run at John Kirby’s Studio in Los Angeles. This sensational play has sold out night after night, after stirring up a buzz in Hollywood.
Keith Huff’s incredible play is directed by premiere acting coach, John Kirby, the “Angel” of Hollywood. “A Steady Rain” took us on unexpected emotional ride, one that includes disfunction, betrayal, and turmoil.

Huff’s play gave us a an intimate look into the complicated lives of police officers, and the temptations that can afflict them.
Synopsis
Keith Huff’s, A SteadyRainis a gritty, darkly poetic duologue about two Chicago police officers whose inner need to serve and protect consumes them — and ultimately, rips them apart.RJ DeBard(The Commission, Remnant, God Shots) and Andy Hoff(Mad Men, NCIS, NCIS LA, Lethal Weapon,Justified, How I Met Your Mother, A Perfect Getaway)star as partners on the police force who share a lifelong friendship that is tested after terrible decisions are made. Chaos spins their lives and careers out of control.
Joey (Hoff) and Denny (DeBard) are lifelong friends and Chicago cops who reach a career stalemate. Joey lives in a simple apartment and has a drinking problem. Denny is married with two kids and dominates the dysfunctional friendship. His abusive tendencies, push the ones he love most emotionally to the edge.
When a domestic disturbance call takes a huge twisted turn, a severe lapse in judgement begins to unravel their trust and loyalty. Told entirely by the two characters, this story rips, seamlessly, between individual recounting and live action. It’s increasingly apparent, however, that the two sides of their story don’t add up.

The brotherhood and bond between these two lifetime friends is simply unbreakable…
Denny (DeBard) lives on the edge, patrols and maintains civilian peace, in the most “unethical” way. He transitions steadily and his conflicted character transcends. Denny is volatile, explosive, and unpredictable. His performance kept the audience captivated. His wide acting range was phenomenal.
Joey (Hoff) is straight laced and watches the turmoil unfold from the sidelines. He is sensible and poised, and what I would consider a “typical cop.” He is also deeply conflicted and battles his own inner demons. Hoff’s execution was brilliant and believable.
The direction by John Kirby and execution of this piece was exceptional…
Bravo! “A Steady Rain” is a MUST-SEE
Be prepared to laugh, shed lots of tears, and be blown away!

About Marvel Universe LIVE
Super hero action, thrills and drama will soar, smash and burst into arenas across the country starting this summer with the debut of the all-new action-packed adventure Marvel Universe LIVE! Age of Heroes. The iconic Marvel Super Heroes Spider-Man and The Avengers are joined by the Guardians of the Galaxy, including Star-Lord, Gamora, Groot, Rocket and Drax, in a
legendary battle to defend the universe from evil.
This good vs evil battle takes spectators on a rollercoaster ride. Marvel Universe LIVE had nonstop action, unbelievable stunts, and was filled with AMAZING special effects. The fire dance was my favorite part of the show. My 10 year old son said, “The battle scenes were so cool mom!” He was ecstatic to see Spider-Man, Drax, Star-Lord, Groot, and his favorite Marvel characters all in one arena.
We took a behind the scenes look at Marvel Universe LIVE and were totally geeking out!
At preview day we learned first hand some of the incredible stunt moves used in the show from the athletic performers directly; and watched some of the epic battle scenes demos live! We also experienced a “sword fight” choreography with Kali Stick demos.
We took a look at the backstage wardrobe tour of costumes & props featured in the show. It was incredible to see how an extraordinary show like this comes together.
This show is a MUST-SEE… Go see it this weekend at the Honda Center!

This new threequel hits theaters June 30th, and will not disappoint moviegoers!
Family is everything… I am the youngest of six siblings and we are all different. We argue, we disagree, but we love each other. In this new film, there is a long lost relative joining Gru’s fam bam. He’s rich, funny, and loving. He’s nothing like his villain brother, but he fits in and he is the missing piece to their family puzzle.
Thank you Universal Pictures for opportunity to interview the Despicable Me 3 cast. All opinions are my own.

This new movie is full of surprises and Minion shenanigans!
Illumination, who brought moviegoers Despicable Me and the biggest animated hits of 2013 and 2015, Despicable Me 2 and Minions, continues the story of Gru, Lucy, their adorable daughters Margo, Edith and Agnes -and the Minions in Despicable Me 3.
After he is fired from the Anti-Villain League for failing to take down the latest bad guy to threaten humanity, Gru finds himself in the midst of a major identity crisis. But when a mysterious stranger shows up to inform Gru that he has a long-lost brother- a brother who desperately wishes to follow in his twin’s despicable footsteps- one former super-villain will rediscover just how good it feels to be bad…
Here is the insider scoop and some excerpts from my interviews with Steve Carell, Kristen Wiig, and Pharrell Williams.
Question:
“I loved the scene where you had to explain that maybe–or you almost explained that there weren’t unicorns. And I just wondered if you could talk about other times when you’ve had to manage the expectations for your kids, or producers or anybody.”
Mr. Steve Carell:
“Yes, I think it’s something that every parent has to navigate. And one of the dilemmas, I think–and Father’s Day is coming up, so I’m being reminded this week of all the foibles of being a dad–is telling them the truth, because I always want to tell my kids the truth. And sometimes when you try to couch the truth in something less than the truth, it doesn’t come out as the truth.
And I think sometimes we worry that our kids aren’t as resilient as they are and that they can handle it, and it’s–that
it’s better that they ultimately understand, you know, the truth of something. I think there’s a way to finesse that without scaring them or hurting them, but–or hurting them as much.
But I guess what I like about that scene is that he ultimately has to just tell his daughter the truth. And it’s really painful, but ultimately more painful for him than it is for her.”

In this new adventure, Gru discovers he has a twin brother. Carell voices both Gru and his brother Dru. His voice transition is flawless. Dru’s personality is distinct from his brother, unlike Gru he was raised by his father.
Kristn Wigg’s character changes from super spy to a caring involved mother. We love her!
Question:
“You kind of answered my question, but do you also get any kind of input as to stories? Since it’s like your second and your third movie, do–you know, when they approach you guys to do another one of these, do they kind of come in, “What do you think for your characters,” and things like that?’
Ms. Kristen Wiig:
“I mean, no, but only because they do such a great job writing the scripts and they’ve got such amazing writers and animators. It’s–we’re happy to just sort of like do a trust fall into these films because we’re in such good hands.
We don’t–I mean, they’re collaborative in the sense of, like, lines sometimes. We can play and do different versions, or they’ll ask if we have an idea for something. But for the most part, you know, we’re just sort of doing what’s there.”
Kristen’s character is upbeat and loving. She’s absolutely adorable…

This new adventure is full of unexpected twists and turns… My son’s favorite part of the film was when Gru and his twin brother embarked on a journey as villains. We laughed out loud while watching this movie. This film is great for the entire family.
The soundtrack in the film is sensational… In my interview with Pharrell, I was curious to know about the creative process and how this remarkable man comes up with his material.
Question:
“Hi, my name is Angela Camacho. I’m with Queen Bee Latina. Now, I noticed on the soundtrack–by the way, I want to thank you for such an upbeat–as a mom, I really appreciate music like that. My son’s 10, and we have played the CD over and over in the car.”
Mr. Pharrell Williams:
“Wow.”
Question:
“But in terms of the creative process, now is–I noticed you write a lot of the songs, particularly Fun, Fun, Fun. We love that. I mean, it’s a great song. What–can you tell me about the creative process? Is this you on your own? Do you collaborate? What’s the creative process like for you when you write your music?”
Mr. Pharrell Williams:
“For me–yes, I did it on my own. But I think more than anything else, it’s just about, like, sort of zoning out and making sure that, like, anything that I’m contributing is going to add to the vision of the director, ’cause when you’re working on an animation film they need no distractions.
Like, if the color is off and you’re watching it and you start asking questions, then it doesn’t work. So, everything has to be acutely executed and has to go along with the intention of what the director wants, because there’s like an emotional flow. And so, when you’re meant to feel down, you’re meant to feel down. When you’re meant to feel up, you’re meant to feel up. And no matter how good you think a song is, if it is a disruption from what the director wants, they’re not going to use it.
And so, for me, I was given a lot of guidelines and parameters and expectations of what they may want. And that–that’s been really fun for me. I wouldn’t have written any of these songs if it weren’t for these films and what the moments in the films required. So, it’s really cool.
It’s like–I’m more like a Mr. Magoo. I’m just following–just walking forward, and the only thing I have in–at that very moment is my instinct. You know, it’s kind of like a constant flow of curveballs. But after a while, you start to enjoy your
ability to still hit the ball, not knowing it’s coming at you. So, that’s what it’s like.”
Pharrell is a true artist, and gave me the chills when he spoke about his music.

I grew up in the 70’s watching actress Lynda Carter in the Wonder Woman hit series on ABC. She was an icon for my generation, and the epitome of intelligence, strength, and beauty. After watching an episode, I often would spin in my living room to transform into Wonder Woman and would reenact one of her battle scenes. I felt invincible and strong. There is a new heroine in town, and she will not disappoint fans…
On June 2nd, the new Wonder Woman Movie will hit theaters with a bang!
Actress Gal Gadot had large shoes to fill when taking on this leading female role. I admit I was a little skeptical before screening this film, but Gadot’s performance blew me away…
My daughter and I were thrilled to get an exclusive interview with Gal Gadot and Director Patty Jenkins earlier this month.
This is a sponsored post. Thank you Warner Bros for inviting my daughter and I to screen Wonder Woman and interview Gal Gadot and Patty Jenkins . All opinions are my own.
This film is long overdue, and I am thrilled that there is a new badass female hero for a new generation!
About The Movie
Power of a goddess. Heart of a hero. Gal Gadot is #WonderWoman
From Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Entertainment comes the epic action adventure starring Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Connie Nielsen and Robin Wright, directed by Patty Jenkins.
Before she was Wonder Woman, she was Diana, princess of the Amazons, trained to be an unconquerable warrior. Raised on a sheltered island paradise, when an American Pilot crashes on their shores and tells of a massive conflict raging in the outside world, Diana leaves her home, convinced she can stop the threat. Fighting alongside man in a war to end all wars, Diana will discover her full powers… and her true destiny.
My daughter applauded and cried tears of joy after screening this film. She sat front and center as she waited to meet Gal Gadot.
Question: So, what do you feel is the most important part of being Wonder Woman?
Ms. Gal Gadot: “Well, I think that it’s so important that we show a strong female figure and that we show her story. I think that me growing up, I could go and watch Superman or Batman, but I never had a strong female figure that really inspires me to look up to. And I think that this movie is so important for all of you young girls and also for boys, as well. I’ve seen many boys dressed as Wonder Woman.
And I think that what’s so beautiful about this character is that she’s very universal. Everyone can find something that he likes for himself about the character. And she stands for beautiful things, for love and for acceptance and compassion and truth, and these values are very important, especially nowadays.
And I think that, if we expose our kids to more of a goodness, then they will become greater. We’ll have a better society.”
Question: I was wondering, so I love Robin Wright, and I think you guys were just so amazing together. And the scenes on the island were incredible. How did you do that, and how did everyone train for that? It was unbelievable?
Ms. Patty Jenkins: “Well, I don’t even know where to begin because it was actually so complicated. To try to build all of the things you need to make this island in the history of Wonder Woman which is always an idealized place that happens to be populated by all of these women but is very real.
And so, it was a visual struggle to find all of the elements to put together to say that almost feels real. But, then to find the greatest women you could. What was cool about it was I’ve grown up knowing so many incredible women and so many incredible people. So, when you try to represent that in an island made up of only women, you end up pulling together so many different interesting people. Some are great at horse riding. Some was the greatest boxer in the world. Someone else is an incredible artisan.
And you end up with such a broad variety of people, and then you want to establish a world where they’re all one.
And so, we found these incredible women. They turned out to be such a broad variety of people, but, we needed the one who knew how to ride a horse to also know how to fight and the one who knew how to fight to know how to ride a horse. And so, we had to do this boot camp for months where each of them worked together every day to learn those other things.
And it turned into this incredibly inspiring cool thing because they all became really tight and really great friends, and how they approach things is slightly different than they might have if they were alone or not together. So, it was really awesome. It was great, and Robin was amazing.”
Ms. Gal Gadot: “It was.”
Question: So, what does it mean for both of you guys to be leading this representation for young girls? I grew up not really seeing anybody on screen to be like that’s who I want to be, that’s who I look up to. And now, my daughter has you.
Ms. Gal Gadot: “It’s amazing, it’s amazing, and I’m so touched by it. It’s funny because it’s my first time seeing girls that actually saw the movie.
And it’s just so moving for me. And your reaction means the world because this is why we make these movies. This is why it’s worth, so I’m very, very happy, and I’m so glad that you all love the movie.”
Ms. Patty Jenkins: “Yes. And for me, when I was a kid, I saw Superman, and it made me feel like I could be a hero one day, and it’s lasted with me ever since and is one of the reasons I’m here today. But, it wasn’t until I saw the show of Wonder Woman on TV, which happened around the same time, when I was Wonder Woman on the playground, I was everything I ever wanted to be.
So, sometimes, we”ve had these moments where we’re like, oh, my God, the idea that we could be a part of kids’ lives in that way is so beautiful and overwhelming, and we hope to give what we were given by other people.”
Ms. Gal Gadot: “Exactly.”
Thank you to Patty Jenkins for creating this wonderful film. I am grateful that you are showing our girls that having strength and brains is a winning combination.
This film has been rated PG-13 for sequences of violence and action, and some suggestive content
Note* The fight scenes my be intense for younger viewers.
The new Wonder Woman Movie empowers and inspires young girls to be leaders in their communities. Girls need to know they can conquer anything that comes their way. They can be the voice for the voiceless, change they wish to see, and most importantly be their own kind of superhero.
Opening night of “The Bodyguard” the musical, at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts in OC was a night to remember.

A romantic thriller, THE BODYGUARD features a host of irresistible classics including “So Emotional,” “One Moment in Time,” “Saving All My Love,” “Run to You,” “I Have Nothing,” “I Wanna Dance with Somebody” and one of the biggest selling songs of all time – “I Will Always Love You.”

Deborah Cox is pitch-perfect and brings back timeless love songs back to life. “Run to You” and “I Will Always Love You” is celestial. I was lip singing during the entire show…
Judson Mills is stoic and convincing, but also charming. He is a total stud in his role as Frank Farmer “The Bodyguard.”
The choreography is upbeat and we wiggled in our seat to the music during the show.

Ahoy mates! Are you a Pirates Of The Caribbean fan?
Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales has hit theaters and will not disappoint moviegoers. This new film is full of surprises and is a MUST-SEE!
Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) is back in his signature role, doing his piratical mischief. Depp’s humor is salty and entertaining as ever!
Thank you Disney for inviting me to screen Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. All opinions are my own.
Johnny Depp returns to the big screen as the iconic, swashbuckling anti-hero Jack Sparrow in the all-new “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.” The rip-roaring adventure finds down-on-his-luck Captain Jack feeling the winds of ill-fortune blowing strongly his way when deadly ghost sailors, led by the terrifying Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem), escape from the Devil’s Triangle bent on killing every pirate at sea—notably Jack. Jack’s only hope of survival lies in the legendary Trident of Poseidon, but to find it he must forge an uneasy alliance with Carina Smyth (Kaya Scodelario), a brilliant and beautiful astronomer, and Henry (Brenton Thwaites), a headstrong young sailor in the Royal Navy. At the helm of the Dying Gull, his pitifully small and shabby ship, Captain Jack seeks not only to reverse his recent spate of ill fortune, but to save his very life from the most formidable and malicious foe he has ever faced.

In this new adventure, Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem) plans to get hold of Jack Sparrows compass in attempt to order to break “dammed the eternity curse” as a ghost curse… This however, can only be accomplished by possessing the Trident of Poseidon.
Bardem’s creepy portrayal of Captain Salazar is on point, but also hard to watch with black goo continuously dripping out of his mouth.
Photo credit to Disney
Carina Smyth (Kaya Scodelario) is brilliant in this female kick ass role! She’s a fearless rebel that keep her mates on their toes. (love her)
Photo credit to Disney
Henry (Brenton Thwaites) is a charming sailor is on a mission and desperate to free his father Will Turner, (Orlando Bloom) from his below-sea curse.
The CGI in this movie is extraordinary, and the parting of the sea scene was jaw dropping.
This movie is swashbuckling, romantic, and full of adventure. It’s everything you could want in a Pirate film…
Go see “Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” now in theaters!
