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 Love your own art: are you turning up as an amateur or a Pro? https://loveyourcreativity.com/2014/02/14/love-your-own-art-are-you-turning-up-as-an-amateur-or-a-pro/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2014/02/14/love-your-own-art-are-you-turning-up-as-an-amateur-or-a-pro/#respond Fri, 14 Feb 2014 14:14:22 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=2673 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2014/02/14/love-your-own-art-are-you-turning-up-as-an-amateur-or-a-pro/feed/ 0 Swimming towards the new year with joy! https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/12/12/swimming-towards-the-new-year-with-joy/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/12/12/swimming-towards-the-new-year-with-joy/#respond Thu, 12 Dec 2013 22:34:17 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=2276 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/12/12/swimming-towards-the-new-year-with-joy/feed/ 0 7 Life Lessons from Sookie Stackhouse to live by (no blood required) https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/06/05/7-life-lessons-from-sookie-stackhouse-to-live-by-no-blood-required/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/06/05/7-life-lessons-from-sookie-stackhouse-to-live-by-no-blood-required/#comments Wed, 05 Jun 2013 20:02:20 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=972 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/06/05/7-life-lessons-from-sookie-stackhouse-to-live-by-no-blood-required/feed/ 1 0:27:29 This week “ Seven Life Lessons from Sookie Stackhouse” plus our weekly creative tracking This is the weekly Love Your Creativity Podcast newsletter to keep myself and you focused on creativity whether you are an artist, actor, musician, playwright o[...] This week “ Seven Life Lessons from Sookie Stackhouse” plus our weekly creative tracking This is the weekly Love Your Creativity Podcast newsletter to keep myself and you focused on creativity whether you are an artist, actor, musician, playwright or film director. To listen to the podcast just press the arrow above, or go to here to a link on iTunes. The  highlights of the podcast are as follows (well they are highlights in my mind ;-)!) I have just finished reading ‘Dead Ever After’ by Charlaine Harris, the last of the Sookie Stackhouse novels, on which the amazing HBO True Blood series is based. (their amazing website is here) I loved the novel ending where she knew that ..they  (no plot spoilers!!) .. would be together maybe for always but even if he left she would be alright, she would survive. Lesson One – Acknowledge you have survived Sookie  knows that she has gone through crazy, death, blood, loss and she has survived… and she will come what may In our reality people go through terrible  things and somehow survive; pain, loss of love & death hurts but you will survive.Recognise that you won through (or crawled through) and you are still here. Acknowledge the battles you have survived. Also she (and probably you) have loved and lost men, some you will love forever but you need to let go. You will survive on your own, you have to Lesson Two – Live In the Moment Sookie lives in the moment – there are so many moments where she lies in the sun, the heat, the flowers.. even despite the crazy around her. She has a place to go and relax, in this moment I am OK. I have started walking/jogging daily again as it makes me happy. Find what always cheers you and reminds you of the good things in life and go do that as often as you can Lesson Three – Family and friends, some you love, others just let them go. Sookie’s family and friends are important, she has learnt to accept their differences, know she cannot change them.  Some people you will love always, some people you need to let go off if they are not positive in your life. Lesson Four – Keep your Heart Open Despite her crazy relationships  Sookie Stackhouse keeps her heart open for new love. Maybe it is easier for a fictional character! Lesson Five – Some lovers  are very selfish Some lovers  are very selfish, not necessarily in bed.. when their ego or life is more important than you all the time it is time to leave. Season 6 Clip Preview Lesson Six- Acknowledge where what you want and what HE wants in a relationship differs You need to acknowledge what you want in life and relationships and check that that matches the men you date. If u want kids why date a vampire? If you like the sun why date a night owl? Its fine when you are not ready to settle down but dating a man clearly not ready to settle down when you want a relationship s a disaster in the long term. Its fine to have casual flings but be clear if thats is what it is and whether you actually want more. Look at your relationships and see the patterns. Make peace with your choices and stop nagging or move on Lesson Seven – Insist on having really great sex Have really great sex.  If you aren’t then  go and get it, or get some help with your current lover. Most Importantly The most admired capacity in  human is not beauty or intelligence or even the capacity to love… but the ability to get up after being beaten down and then fight forward in their own way, living the life they chose. Think of  Helen Keller, The Shawshank Redemption, Rocky, Nelson Mandela. Think also of Marlon Brando in The Waterfront ‘ i could have been a contender,” – Don’t get to the end of your life and say this.   13 minute task of the day Replace the lyrics to’ I will Survive’ with a situation or name of someone you survived.
