Brush Up Your Shakespeare...

 

TO BE OR NOT TO BE!

For a while back in the 70s, 80s and 90s, apart from being a cartoonist, I pursued a career in acting with varying grades of success. For the most part, I just landed small roles in TV commercials and an extended stint performing in dinner theaters which lasted almost 20 years until the new millennium kicked in and most of them folded. There was a short period in 1985 where I made it into the cast of a TV sitcom which barely survived for one season. And, apart from brief cameo appearances in two films, my acting ambitions were reduced to doing comedy skits for a radio show which lasted, in various formats, about eleven years.
Luckily, none of those efforts are available for viewing today (except for the films), and thus, the only evidence remaining of my thespian ambitions is a pair of magazine ads where I tried to look somewhat fashionable.
