MAME!

Life is a banquet!
And most poor sons of bitches are starving to death!
— Auntie Mame Dennis

I've wanted to play the character of Mame (from the eponymous Broadway show) since I was 7 years old, sitting by the speaker cabinet, listening to Angela Lansbury belt it out from the West End Production.  

It's THE reason I became an actor.  

It's THE role I want to play before I die.

But... no one's gonna hand it to me, I think.  So I decided to put a little magic out in the universe of my own.

Here's hoping!
