How Not To Relax During Summer Vacation

It's been a busy week with a variety of auditions for the teen actor. The auditions have been all over the road in terms of the characters he's had the chance to read for in the last 7-10 days. The roles have included:

*A bratty high school student forced to be part of the school play thanks to getting in trouble at school

*A kid named "Diego" that I discussed here

*An alien from the future who is 4-feet tall and trapped in the body of a teenager

*A kid who wants to have a pet cow in his city dwelling

*An action hero destined to save our world once he is no longer grounded by his parents

*The owner of a gem that a group of international thieves is looking to steal

*A boy who thinks he is a dog trapped in the body of a human

Whether or not he gets any of these parts, the audition process is giving him plenty of material for his stand-up gigs. There are times I'll ask him how an audition went and he will just smile and tell me to wait for his next stand-up gig.

Speaking of which...Rare in-blog plug time! Zach is doing stand-up in July at Flappers Comedy Club in Burbank. He's opening for Felicia Michaels on Friday June 1st during the 7:30pm show in the YooHoo Room. Want half-price tickets? Get them while you still can here. He'll play the main room at Flappers for the first time on Monday July 25th at 8pm as part of "Make Em Laugh Monday". While I'm linking and plugging things, here is his Flappers talent bio if you want to book the kid and also his IMDB page containing some new photos of Zach at recent showbiz and charity events.

It's definitely a busy summer vacation for the teen actor/stand-up comedian. I think he is enjoying not having to learn the wonders of Economics 101 while also having to write fresh material for upcoming shows. I can help him with Economics and I can sometimes be a test audience for his stand-up material. However, I am completely lost when he needs help with his math homework!
