Los Angeles: Bios Take Three Here are a couple of more bios of our featured performers.... Clay and Dan are two of the most interesting and offbeat performers you'll ever hear tell a story. Clay Bravo was voted " Most Likely to Look Like the Cowardly Lion" by her high school theatre arts class. Propelled by that accolade, she did nothing for many years…. Then one night at a local club, she "accidentally" opened for Drew Carey, which led to a five-year stint as a stand up comedienne, performing at the Ice House, Catch a Rising Star, and the Comedy Store in a weekly show titled "Women in Comedy Who Don't Have Their Own Series.... Yet." She has worked with Directors Tony Scott and Christopher Guest, co-starred in several independent films and been featured in many national Commercials. Most notably, an award winning Campbell's Soup Spot, which was featured on the Rosie O'Donnell Show, Clay played a foster mother who welcomes her new "daughter" with the same kind of soup that the little girl's mother used to make her…. In real life, as a child, the smell of clay's mother's soup, made her run from the house screaming. Dan Tirman has been enjoying contributing to the weekly performances at Beverly Mickins’ "Story Salon". While teaching English as a Second Language at several colleges, including Moscow University in Russia, Dan shared many stories and anecdotes with his wonderful students. As an actor at the Burt Reynolds Theater in Florida, Dan trained with Jose Quintero and Charles Nelson Reilly, appeared in several productions, and created and directed two original works; "The Dorothy Parker 20th Century Blues Review" and "Baudelaire:Get Drunk". This September, at the James Whitmore Theater, Dan premieres "I Live Lucy", his first one-person show. « Entertainment! Fray Meeting » |
