WEEK FIVE with actor and late night comedian Mark Delabarre "Don't let anybody tell you - you can't!"
Description
Mark Delabarre and I became friends in the early 1980’s where we met at Virginia Commonwealth University. His gorgeous tenor voice, handsome face and height (I believe he is 6’4) caught my attention immediately. He’s not only talented but just a lovely soul. He has lived in NYC for about 30 years and made a living as late night comedian, model, television actor and if my memory serves me correctly gives a pretty mean back rub! He took that talent and became a certified massage therapist so when “in between jobs” as we like to say in the theatre – it sounds better than unemployed – he has a steady job. The Actor’s Fund helped him with funding - he tells us how tap into that opportunity. Mark studied at Bada in Oxford (British American Drama Academy) with the master himself, James Barton who authored PLAYING SHAKESPEARE. He was Will in the national tour of The Will Rogers Follies (that boy can rope!) and has some great advice for actors of all ages. Enjoy!!!
