UPDATE Lynn Ruth is doing her new show ’80’  at The Marlborough Theatre May 8,9,10 and 11 @ 6 p.m for the Brighton Fringe Festival 2014 details here Here are some of the highlights (this is not a full transcript) ‘My mantra is that I am no  different than anyone else, I just don’t say no to life. I don’t have a special talent, Any talent that I have developed. it didn’t start off as a talent, it  started out as an interest, and I just kept doing it until it became an ability’ The reason she pursued this career in cabaret and stand up comedy at 71 is because she took a class in stand up and she was cheered by the audience, she had never seen love like that in her entire life, she thought that this is the most beautiful kind of love there is, (She was 71) You don’t have to cook them dinner, you don’t have to change the sheets Lynn Ruth started doing stand up at 71 and cabaret at 73. She is now 80 years of age and last year won the TOAST (Time Out And Soho Theatre) award at Edinburgh, the prize being that a two week stint at the gorgeous cabaret lounge downstairs at the Soho Theatre, March 11th to March 22nd 2014. Details here I first met Lynn Ruth in 2007 at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival where I was doing my own cabaret/comedy show as well as hosting and producing the Midnight Carousel cabaret each night for C Venues. I would sing cabaret, chat and have six guests on a night and Lynn Ruth was my very favorite guest, she called her show then granny cabaret. I also saw her in Brighton Festival 2010 where Lynn Ruth was doing her show ‘Alzheimers, Alzheimers’ and I was with my great friend and colleague Elizabeth Mee as we were doing our show ‘Cooking And Cabaret’. She is based in San Francisco and comes every summer for the last 7 years. She also did Britain’s Got Talent, an agent found her that way. Simon Cowell’s criticism was absolutely spot on as her humour is about being old and you can predict where it is going. She picked the most predictable stuff and it is a big audience so she chose material that didnt make the audience think too much. ‘I am 80 and I am on my third car because I can’t remember where I parked the other two” Lynn Ruth was a teacher and has several degrees in teaching, she believes you can spot very creative children as they don’t really get the rules, they are not so much naughty as they don’t understand the rules. Lynn  Ruth has always seen a different answer, creative people seem to have a different version of reality. Her parents were Jewish and their goal in life was to blend in to society when they came to America. She never blended very well. Her heritage has no interest for her, she is always interested where life can take her. She has always written and when you write you redefine the world in your own terms. She started writing at six and had a poem published at nine years of age. She was always surprised when people thought her writing was special. Her creativity was always words, not science. Always through school she came up with a different conclusion, not the accepted one which was viewed as a bad thing for her family and her society. She never had a conformist mind and yet thought she was normal but then years later her sister, who was very good at confirming, called and asked her to come to a party if ‘you don’t do what you do’ Lynn Ruth didn’t know what that was. (I can relate to this!) Lynn Ruth has such freedom in her, and I love seeing that as a creative. Lynn Ruth always questions the right or wrong of art for example the role of directing. She is terrible at collaborative work but her current show is written with her pianist Robert Pettigrew as they have the same goal. She is loving having a real live pianist who follows her and makes her a better performer. Lynn Ruth believes in the importance of the arts, that that is where the t[...] Auditions, Directors, Fun, Gratitude, Inspiration, Motivation, Podcast, Writers Marysia Trembecka Actress/Blogger/Writer & Performer of her own shows no no https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/12/05/29-kevin-bisbangian-award-winning-film-director-you-have-to-work-hard/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/12/05/29-kevin-bisbangian-award-winning-film-director-you-have-to-work-hard/#comments Thu, 05 Dec 2013 14:00:03 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=2139 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/12/05/29-kevin-bisbangian-award-winning-film-director-you-have-to-work-hard/feed/ 5 0:24:51 Podcast 29: This is a podcast interview I did with Kevin Bisbangian, award winning film director.

I have worked with Kevin as I acted in his short ‘Chain Reaction’ alongside my friend Michael Brazil who had won best Supporting Actor at Madrid, acting in Kevin’s very first drama ‘Broken Wings’. Broken Wings was nominated for six awards at Madrid International Film Festival 2012. The nominations were Best script, producer, director, actor, supporting actor and best actress. He has subsequently won best short documentary award at St Tropez for ‘Poetic Emotions’ Q:Any advice for budding filmmakers or writers? Kevin doesn’t feel he is at a level to give anyone advice but working hard is really important. He has very talented filmmakers who make one film every couple years and then think about next one for two more years. ‘If you really like something you have to work hard at it. It is not good enough to make one film every three or four years. I understand if it is not ready but if you can afford it ,it is better to work hard and even with different people.’ He is working with 3 different groups of people and it works for him as well as produce other directors work in the future. Either listen to the podcast by pressing the button above or there is a loose transcript below. Kevin went to China for three weeks and made his first ever film, a documentary, which he loved for the editing. He then made an ad with a friend of his and ‘Broken Wings’ was the third film he made, and the first drama he had made. He knew most of the actors anyway, he had done a Method Acting course so he handpicked the best actors. I asked about self-doubt and why he felt it was good enough to send off to festivals. ‘You never know but I am generally good at identifying if something is rubbish and I am honest with myself.’ The ‘Poetic Emotion’ documentary he made he had the thought that if it was rubbish he would forget about it, and that was the plan and they (himself and Juliet the star) both agreed. ‘After editing you know if it is any good,’ St Tropez Film Festival ‘Poetic Emotion’ won the best short documentary award in 2013. He has been making films for 4 years, he maintains the awards are a fluke. He feels that he has been very lucky and worked with professional people, that helps you get nominations and thus work with better people. After ‘Broken Wings’ he made ‘Studio’ which was about making ‘Poetic Emotion’, ‘Last Letter’ a 3 minute film, and also ‘Chain Reaction’ that I (Marysia) am in. I got to hold the very heavy St Tropez international Winner Award Q: Does he think he is particularly good at giving judges of festivals what they want? ‘You can never afford to submit your film to every festival, but you have to decide where to send your film to give it a better chance i.e St Tropez because the documentary being about a French artist it would have a better chance. Broken Wings as there was a scene he was in that he had to speak in Spanish and Japanese, as was the actress speaking Spanish in it so he thought he would send it to Madrid as give it better chance’ Having been to a screening of ‘Broken Wings’ I thought the bleeding in from shots, the visuals, the more early Almadovar breaking the frame was more why he would have been nominated but of course neither of us know. Kevin has recently finished Salome, a psychological thriller and he was lucky to have twenty very professional people to work with. He started planning a year ago last summer to do rehearsals, costumes, makeups, to decide about every little detail. ‘ In the last few days before shooting we lost a location and without a location the pressure really escalates and makes me depressed but we managed to get an even better location.’ He is hoping to submit it to a few festivals, there is no deadline you can submit your film within the next 3 years anyway. ‘As long as the result is good, the pressure just happens during the shoot.” The Studio from Kevin Bisbangian on Vimeo.
