Thanksgiving Reflections

End-of-Year Note from Jennifer McCray Rincón

 

Yesterday was Thanksgiving. And I cannot help but be thankful for so much in our work over the past year and reflect on so much more to come. 

The life of an artist is not easy. Talent for this work is a gift and the passion and love to do this work is also a gift. But the work itself demands rigorous daily commitment to the study of technique and the study and production of theatre literature, both old and new. Theatre is a calling, not just a job, and most artists will work in their chosen art form all of their lives. And they will never stop studying and growing. And artists need the help of family, friends, professionals, and community. No one can do this alone.

 

I have been blessed with a life in the theatre. And my passion and commitment to this work has been life long. Visionbox Studio exemplifies all I believe and want to work on for the rest of my life in the theatre. We are living in a time of social change and great challenges. There seems to be more that divides us socially, politically and humanly than ever before. But every time a new artist comes into our rehearsal rooms all that divides us disappears and all I see is hope and new energy and that individual creative spark grows into a lifetime of purpose and joy.

 

I am asking everyone who has seen our work, everyone who believes in the power of live theatre to bring us together and to make life better to consider an end of year donation to Visionbox Studio.  Donate so a new student can receive a scholarship and begin their artistic journey, donate so a new local writer like Drake Susuras can have his work grow and be seen, donate so we can bring actors like David Hyde Pierce and Chris Noth into our community to share their talent, training, experience and strength with our local artists, donate so we can come together as audience and artists to talk and listen and reconnect to the universal truths of the human condition to find new healing, change and hope!

 

Today all I feel is gratitude for all we have accomplished over the past 15 years. And at the same time the challenges to continue are very real. And today we truly need your help.  I hope to see everyone at our next beautiful event, It's A Wonderful Life with Chris Noth! 

 

And yes, a life in the theatre is a wonderful life! Help us keep this going in 2025 and beyond!

CHRIS NOTH

Two-time Golden Globe Nominee and SAG Award nominated actor Chris Noth is well known as a strong, charismatic leading man in television and film. He rose to prominence as “Detective Mike Logan” for five seasons on the original LAW AND ORDER and is perhaps most recognized for his iconic role as “Mr. Big” on HBO's groundbreaking series SEX AND THE CITY. He also starred as “Peter Florrick” opposite Juliana Margolis on the CBS hit drama THE GOOD WIFE. The stage, however, is Noth’s first love. Since graduating from the Yale School of Drama, he has appeared in numerous plays both on and off Broadway.

VISIONBOX STUDIO THEATRE

Professional actor training classes in Colorado.

​

We offer 5 week scene study classes for actors of all ages, levels and backgrounds that culminate in a performance. While the focus of the class is on acting technique, each sequence can also be taken as a playwright or director with assignments and work tailored to these disciplines. We also offer ongoing audition classes on Saturday mornings and a Directors Lab on Saturday afternoons. 

​

As an extension of the training program, Visionbox Studio Theatre has produced workshops of new performance work by nationally and internationally acclaimed writers, directors, designers and actors. These public performances of new work featuring multi-media design have included The Othello Project by Visionbox, Commedia D'amore, a new play by British Actor Daniel Gerroll, The Wild Hunt by Bill Pullman, a world premiere of Seeking Charlie Russell  written and performed by Bill Pullman and A Child’s Christmas in Wales by Dylan Thomas with Broadway Actor Bill Youmans and most recently American Addict a devised piece by Jennifer McCray Rincón and Visionbox. Visionbox is a Tier III project of the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD) and part of the McNichols Civic Center Building Cultural Partnership Program.
