What's next...

Hey Hey...so I've been MIA.

Let's see....what have I been up to...I wrapped shooting Moonsies. I am gearing up to perform in a play festival next month, plays written by Bonnie Wright, not sure exact dates but will definitely update about that. I also took some new headshots with Audrey who I met at DAG. She is an amazing photographer. I had never had an outdoor shoot before but she definitely made me feel comfortable and let me check out the photos as we shot so I could alter my positioning and what not. I'm excited to make updates to my website and do a big mailing within the next month. I am also gearing up to take a commercial class with David Cady, CD with Donna De Seta Casting. I took a workshop with him at Syracuse and I really like his style so I'm thinking it will be a great refresher.

Other than that...having fun and enjoying my life! My birthday is next week and I am sooo excited to head to West Palm Beach!!

Oh and the HOUSE season finale tonight rocked my world!

That's all for now...

Good Morning!!

So, on Sunday I performed at Directing Actors Gym. DAG is a workshop that occurs every 3 weeks where the selected actors work on scenes. The catch is that you never know who your scene partner will be until you get there..there is no time to rehearse with them to get a groove going. It's all about trusting your partner, listening, and having done your homework. I really enjoy attending and performing at DAG and highly recommend it to any actor in NYC that is looking for a great workout. Thanks to Miles Maker who is the brain of it all. DAG has definitely gotten me cast in plays and enabled me to network network network..and build some cool friendships!

On Monday I attended the Blackboard reading series which is held every 2nd Monday of the month at the cell theatre. The play read was Stranger in my body written by Garlia Cornelia Jones. Wonderful play exploring relationships. It was such an intimate setting that most of the audience expressed (during the talkback) that it felt like we were sneaking into a conversation. That's exactly how theatre should make you feel. Love it. Kudos to Garlia!!! I also enjoyed the Detroit references...Poor Kwame haha.

Alrighty..I'm gearing up to shoot a scene on Saturday that is part of the webseries The Moonsies. This is my first scene to be shot and I am super excited. Got a few auditions tomorrow...let's get it!!!

If you want something..go get it.

Hey Hey...

So Polis went great! We had wonderfully full audiences and such fun times. What a work out that show was..so grateful to have been a part of it. Camilla Le-Bert is an MFA Playwrighting candidate at Columbia University and she wrote and directed Polis. She is definitely an Actor's director which is always appreciated :-)

I also shot short film One Night this past Saturday. This shoot was soo professional and timely. Seriously in and out in 3.5 hours. Love that..I don't think that has ever happened on any film set I have been on. Darrien Belton and B. McCall were wonderful to work with..I highly recommend networking with them.

Next up: shooting webseries Moonsies next weekend...should be another quick and fun shoot.

Other than that...a few auditions are lined up and I will be performing at the Directing Actors Gym on April 11th from 2-5. If you don't know about DAG you betta ask somebody!!!

Adios y'all!

Updates for your face!

Updates Updates!

• So..Polis opens tonight! Very excited for people to see it. Reserve your free ticket here: https://www.ovationtix.com/trs/pr/723765
• Cast in Project M which is a web series that starts shooting in April. More details to come.
• Cast in short film One Night. We have our first table read through tomorrow. It's a very fun project so I am excited to get that started.

I guess what they say is true.."work begets work"!

That's all for now y'all...

Good evening...

Well...I have been working on a show Polis which opens this Friday. It's written by Camila Le-Bert who is a second year MFA Playwright at Columbia University. The play is very cool..so different from anything I have been in. There are 10 actors in it and we all play 4 or more characters. It's a very abstract view of city living and all the characters involved. FUN FUN!!! Talk about a workout! It's free so I'm hoping some of my folks can come out and support it.

To rsvp for free ticket..go here

Good Sunday Afternoon! It's such a beautiful day today...loving it! I had an audition this morning for a reading of "Three Sisters" which is part of the late night series with Theater/Vision Playtime. I am a huge fan of Chekhov and have had the pleasure of playing Natasha in the production at Syracuse..so we shall see what happens. I am currently sitting in Starbucks listening to Emmanuel Baptist Church live feed of the 12pm service. Now..I have headphones in but for some reason the woman next to me keeps attempting to chat me up..as well as every person in this joint. She is obviously a regular. Ehh...just gonna listen to my church service.

In a few hours I have tech rehearsal for Bitter Apples..our extended run this Mon-Thurs. And tonight is OSCAR night...overall gonna be a great day!

Hello Hello

Hello All!
I have crept out of my blogging cave and decided to start again...I have not blogged since College graduation...wowsers. I intend on blogging primarily about my journey as an Actress in NYC--with a few life/dating stories thrown in (but of course). I meet way to many crazies not to blog about them (that reminds me I wanna see that movie, The Crazies.

So as far as Acting, I recently got my reel re-edited. It now includes my latest film projects. Check it out at www.rachelkiner.com. I have a few auditions lined up for the weekend and am rehearsing for the extended performances of Bitter Apples directed by Arthur French III.

Other than that..I have the BEST day job ever, nice "potentials"(men I could date) and spring is near. What more can I ask for?

Well, a national commercial would be nice!
