Portland, OR – An incredibly busy and fulfilling past month–producing two new lipsync videos, submitting a second Vlogish entry, as well as participating in a zombie workshop in Los Angeles led by Voki Kalfayan, and hosting and performing in the inaugural production of the mini circus/variety show/cabaret Le Tigre in Santa Monica. Jimmy now finds himself in the Pacific Northwest for more wacky fun in KOOZÅ.

Social Media – LIVE!

I’m on Twitter. And I enjoy reading news, what my friends are doing, ephemera, and also what people think about Kooza. I keep an eye on people coming to see the show as well as people who have already seen the show and sharing what they think. That’s not a new concept. Businesses often look to Twitter to see what …

Zombies, Tigres, and Close Friends–OH MY!

After closing a run of Kooza in San Diego, the whole family drove right away up to Los Angeles to stay with Leo’s godparents, Voki and Anais. Also staying with them were our good friends Jonathan and Anne, who all were prepping for their brand new tent show/mini-circus/travelling cabaret, Le Tigre. Getting into LA late night on a Sunday was …

“Le Box” – It’s French for The Box

Jimmy SloninaStage Leave a Comment

Last night, the technicians, administrators and other non-performing workers of Kooza presented, “Le Box”, a full-on, no-holds-barred, no-punches-pulled parody of Kooza. The evening started with a hilarious video presentation of Kooza bloopers, compiled by Ganji, edited by Teign-Teign, and played in a loop on the big screens in the concession area. As expected, alternate reactions of gut-busting laughing and eye-shielding …

[Photo by Stephan Landry] I’ve had a lot of people shake their head at what I do and say something like, “You must have the most fun job in the world.” Maybe.
