My Twitter #BraveBirthday Bonanza!

On Friday, I turn 30. And MAN am I psyched. My 20s have been great, but this is is the decade of bravely asking for what I want, refusing to be limited by fear-based beliefs, and demanding the best from myself and those around me. I'm calling this Friday #BraveBirthday.

More than anything, I wake up day after day wanting to work with my dream director, Paul Feig. Whether he's working in TV or film, he's making stories with funny women that are silly, touching, empowering and damn funny. I know that's where I belong, I can feel it in my bones! (Not to mention that I'm basically Melissa McCarthy's kid sister.) So I'm owning my power--I've created a Twitter Birthday Party to ensure that my message reaches him as easily as possible. :)

I'll be tweeting to him a few times throughout the week, with a bunch of them then spaced out over Friday, so there are oodles of chances to party hard with me. Would you like to join my party? It's super easy--you can participate by retweeting, favoriting, or even a separate tweets to build the buzz! Click below:
  •  
    "My funny actress friend @JenPonton 's birthday wish is to work with you, @PaulFeig: http://tinyurl.com/PaulFeig"

  • "Happy Birthday, @JenPonton--I hope you get to connect with your dream director @PaulFeig! http://tinyurl.com/PaulFeig"

  • Or share your experience with me!

Of course, if you have a closer connection to Paul than Twitter and would be open to helping us connect, I would be so incredibly grateful. :)

I am so excited to celebrate and usher in this big, bold decade with a BIG, bold call to action!

A Year of Quantum Leaps

Hey friends!

Last we touched base (yikes. I know.), I was in the middle of an epic tech for Rattlestick Playwrights Theatre. The show was *wonderful*--here are some of my favorite reviews:


We had a MARVELOUS run with a wonderful audience response! After doing my first play in over 3 years, I jumped back into TV with both feet. I had a super-fun guest star opposite Victor Garber on The Good Wife in the new year, a positively KICK. ASS. Pilot season, and then finished up the spring with my very first top-of-show guest star on CBS' Blue Bloods season finale!

Whew--is that a good enough catch up? I've been a busy gal--AND in the middle of lots of life changes. Some are amazing, some are leading me to spend more time with my loved ones than ever before. But the most exciting one? Well, I'm hoping I can share that one with you soon. :)
