HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Pleased to return again

Greetings!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2007

I was pleased to spend another New Years Eve

down memory lane!

One always moves ahead, but one never forgets

how skills such as walkaround/performance techniques

were developed...

 

Michael Carl O'Neil's own Charlie Chaplin - New Years Eve in previous days at Lulus!

Thanks to Zane Culliton for photos!

Photo - years ago at Lulu's with Charlie Chaplin!

Had a wonderful opportunity to go back again to the past this

New Year's Eve

which brought about this

REFLECTION:

From 1987 to 1993, l had the pleasure and honour of working as Charlie Chaplin at Lulu's Roadhouse, Kitchener, Ontario


Master of Ceremonies, Mr. Kenny Hollis wrote in a reference letter

''Most of these artists if contacted would give Michael an excellent recommendation; although in doing so, please refer to him as Charlie Chaplin as most don't know his real name!".

This was a fact to many I was always called Charlie for this reason no one knew my actual name and Charlie personality was very strong to people.

Lulu's Roadhouse, was a wonderful place for a mime artist to develop his craft.

The high energy and rhythmic atmosphere made gesture and body movement a powerful tool. I was able to use the music to set rhythmn and beat, much as a dancer in a ballet reacts to music.



Final note, one thing that a lot of people do not know is on my first try out at Lulu's in 1987,to my shock and surprise I recognized Adam from way back when at that time in his 20's, he almost ran me over with his motor boat as a boy.

We then became friends and I use to hang out with him and his grandmother. When I asked "What are you doing here Adam?"he said: "My father is the owner of Lulu's!"...

and

that is my introduction to Lulu's.

 

Below is a favourite newspaper clipping:

(Kitchener Record - March 1987 by Bob Rittinger)

One of the articles from Lulu's!

Gloves and all

with

World Heavy-Weight

Boxing Champion:

Lennox Lewis!

More reflections to come...

 

In the meantime, here's to continuingly

improve my craft with

a favourite mime character

now known internationally as

CHARLIE CHAPLIN's CANADIAN TRAMP!

May this year 2007

bring you and yours much

peace, good health and also with great importance...

LAUGHTER!
