New Movie Role in Small Chairs…

I am happy to be working on an independent movie called Small Chairs, with Lea Thompson, Danica McKellar, Scott Patterson and Dustin Milligan. Dustin plays my son and it will be fun to work with Scott again, who played my husband in A Beer Tale. Danica and I both spoke at an environmental event years ago, and she is incredibly smart (she writes math books!). I know Lea from back in the 80s when we were auditioning alot for the same roles and she is very nice. The movie is directed by Rachel Goldenberg, who has created some very funny pieces for Funny or Die. The film takes on Christmas day over the span of 30 years. It is the story of the evolving friendship and love between two kids (Danica and Dustin) whose parents are best friends. Takes place in Illinois but we are shooting in Los Angeles during a heat wave – hmmm, I hope the house in which we film has air conditioning!
