Rewatching ST:DS9 Sisko, Dax, Odo and Garak return from a conference on the Cardassian occupation of Bajor, where Garak got flak for his pro-Cardassian bias, and Odo is uncomfortable with his own reputation as a hero. They’re in a runabout, so it’s no surprise that a plot contrivance particle field hits them before the opening…
Rewatching ST:DS9 Strait-laced time cops arrive on the station to demand “just the truth, Captain.” Sisko’s voice-over informs us that on a trip to recover a Bajoran Plot Contrivance Orb, the Defiant picks up a passenger who would be strangely familiar to anyone who had seen any of Paramount’s extensive promotion for this episode, scheduled…
The daughter missed her graduation ceremony because she was performing in Kinetic Theatre‘s A SHERLOCK CAROL. Thank you, David Whalen for officiating in this “irregular” backstage ceremony!
In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. @thepublicpgh
I just caught myself thinking, “This doesn’t suck.” #medievalyork #mysteryplay #blender3d #design #aesthetics
Our family has seen David Whalen in the persona of Sherlock in five or six different shows. So happy Carolyn will be on stage with him this time.
Talkback session after the matinee and my brother and faculty colleagues after the evening performance. Audiences were gasping, laughing nervously, exclaiming sotto voce about “fingerprints!” and “the key!“ and “Was that *supposed* to happen?” and “This is *good*!” @thepublicpgh #dialm #understudy (We knew well in advance Carolyn would be performing yesterday.) My daughter informed me…
Looking forward to this! @thepublicpgh
She’s on her way to the @thepublicpgh for two shows today as Margot in Dial M for Murder.
My simulated city has 1000 capsule inhabitants that are just smart enough to gather around markers and wait. In May, I had nothing. I‘m learning. #medievalyork #mysteryplay #unity3d
I’ve had a lot of fun in this new ensemble audio storytelling series. Did I do a good job convincing my friends I really saw a time-traveling elephant?

Support the arts in your community! I’m here for the daughter and the rest of the cast. @jerz.carolyn @frontporchtheatricals
My daughter who sometimes does things will be singing & swinging August 16 – 25 with @frontporchtheatricals
Even though I wrote about some of Eugene O’Neil’s earlier plays in my dissertation, I had never seen or even read this play before. I knew the basic subject matter but didn’t know the details. All the actors did a great job and the production values were top notch, as I expect from Quantum.
A great professional experience for her.
I have a daughter who does things. Here’s what she’ll be starting on next week. @frontporchtheatricals
The cast of comical, quirky characters are most enjoyable. Marigold (Carolyn Jerz) is hilarious as the new age, love child who always sees the best in everybody and everything. Jerz floats, whirls, and glides across the stage. She’s delightful and believable in her role. Her presence on stage brings lightness and spreads joy. —Burgh Vivant
Carolyn Jerz lights up the stage from her first entrance, almost literally. Dressed in bright colors and elaborately coiffed, with her face made up so pale white that it glows (think Björk meets Catherine O’Hara in Beetlejuice), Jerz imbues the role of spiritualist and yoga enthusiast Marigold with an outsider energy that is otherworldly, larger than life,…
The daughter is in “Very Berry Dead,” a new play which opens this Friday and runs for two weekends in Pittsburgh.
