Meet Team Galactic Girl: Temar Underwood!
We are keeping the cast spotlights going!! Today we meet, Mr. Temar Underwood.
Temar is a Jack-of-all-trades. He is a Writer, Actor, Producer, Fighter, Director as well as a Recording Artist. I met Temar back in 2008 while performing in Vampire Cowboys’ FIGHT GIRL BATTLE WORLD, one of their most crowd-pleasing and critically acclaimed shows to date. That near it won the NYIT award for Outstanding Ensemble. Soon after, I had the privilege to work on Temar’s play The Brokenhearteds, which he wrote, produced & acted in. It was inspiring to see him work so hard and I can defiantly say that I’ve tried to emulate his work ethic while getting this play up and running.
Temar is also in pre-production for his next project! His play, Lady Drug Dealer and the Heisthas been accepted into the New York International Fringe Festival. If you’d like to help him out he is currently raising funds for the show. Click HERE for more details.
And now, may I present, Mr. Temar Underwood:
Q: TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT YOURSELF.
Q: OH NICE WWE REFERENCE!….WELL ALRIGHT THEN! ARE YOU EXCITED TO BE A PART OF “GALACTIC GIRL in: ATTACK of the STARBARIAN”?
A: It would be funny if I said “Umm, No. Hoche is making me do it. Help me. Help me.” But alas I am excited.
Q: WHAT DO YOU THINK PEOPLE CAN LOOK FORWARD TO WHEN THEY SEE THE SHOW
A: Badassery. And Sweet Chin Music to Stephen Heskett’s umm chin.
Q: BAM! WWE REFERENCE #2!! ARE YOU EXCITED TO BE A PART OF THE FIRST EVER COMIC BOOK THEATER FESTIVAL?
A: It’s a really cool concept and should be a great deal of fun.
Q: ARE YOU A FAN OF COMIC BOOKS? IF SO, WHAT COMIC BOOKS DO YOU LIKE?
A: To be honest, I am foreign to the comic book world, although I have been in numerous comic book inspired plays. They always have to explain the jokes to me. I’ve never seen any of the Star Wars movies either.
Q: WOW! You might want to keep that on the down low.....TELL US A JOKE!
A: Did you hear about that man? That man in Milwaukee that cut up them people in his house. They found a head in his refrigerator. Now you know that give a whole new meaning to, “Want some head?”
A: Stop it. STOP IT! You’re embarrassing me.
Q: WHO ARE YOU PLAYING IN “GALACTIC GIRL?
General Fu Fu, Kermugen, some aliens and shock troopers.
WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL BE SOME CHALLENGES PLAYING THESE CHARACTERS?
Working with Stephen Heskett. Also without giving away too much, acting with a video of myself. The video isn't going to give me anything. I hate you video Temar. You are a bad actor. It's all about you you you.
Beating up Stephen Heskett. And as an actor I find solving and overcoming challenges most fun, so I would say acting with a video if myself. I also think this is an extraordinary cast with an awesome director...so being up there with these ladies and gents is going to be a real pleasure.
Q: HOW DOES ONE PREPARE FOR A SHOW LIKE THIS?
A: Count your blessings, cut your loses, and follow the yellow brick road.
Q: ANYTHING YOU CARE TO ADD?
A: Jon Hoche is the real deal.
Thanks Temar!! Be Sure to catch Temar and the rest of the cast of Galactic Girl in: Attack of the Starbarians as part of the Brick Theater’s Comic Book Theater Festival!! This June!!
