JEWELL WILSON BRIDGES

“Like everyone else, I lived in a house bricked up with seconds and minutes, weekends and New Year's Days, and I never went outside until I died, because there was no other door. Now I know that I could have walked through the walls. (...) You can strike your own time, and start the count anywhere. When you understand that — then any time at all will be the right time for you.”

Peter S. Beagle, ‘The Last Unicorn’


RECENT PROJECTS


“Jewell Wilson Bridges…shines instantly on his entrance. Wide eyed and energetic, his crystal clear tenor voice embraces Baugher’s score with ease.”

“Jewell Wilson Bridges plays Scott with a silky smooth voice, a winning smile, and a self-assured nonchalance punctuated with moments of self-doubt that make the character hard to resist.”

“Bridges is superb as the brash young Welles, carrying his character with steadiness through shades of behavior ~ from arrogance to vulnerability, from alcohol-soaked frustration and directorial uncertainty to selfless determination. His epiphany as for whom the bell tolls in the production of VOODOO MACBETH and his surrender of ownership is presented with breathtaking power.”

“Bridges…conveys the mix of showmanship, ambitious drive and character flaws that make the young director so intriguing.”

 

“Bridges is compelling in his portrayal of Welles’ descent from cocky boy genius to virtual lunatic. From the confidence and rakish charm to the myopia, misdirected anger and chemical dependency — he puts it all out there.”

 

Other Reviews:

THE LION IN WINTER, ST LOUIS REP

“Bridges is deliciously snide as Geoffrey."

“Hellerich, Bridges and DeJesus each prove their mettle as actors. Indeed, if any of them were less than perfect in their roles, things would grind to halt.”

“Wilson Bridges shines as Geoffrey, the wheels visibly turning in his head as he plots his next move.”

This is the obligatory “something about you” section,

but rather than give you my bio…

I’m just going to give you my…

Friend Pitch:

Reasons Why You’d Want Me In Your Life.

1) I am a HUGE dork. We are talking fluency in nerd, so long as we are talking about fantasy, scifi, and comics. I’m Marvel versus DC (though Neil Gaiman made me a believer), Star Trek versus Star Wars (I still love the films though), and I will give almost anything a chance that has magic in it.

2) I’m an Aquarius and airhead at times…which may not seem like an asset, but when I ooh and aah over your new haircut 10 times because I’ve rediscovered it in that moment yet again…well then I’m a never-ending source of compliments. Also I don’t like to leave those observations unsaid for fear I’ll forget them. So when it occurs to me how much I appreciate and adore you, it will always be said and you will always know. :)

3) I still believe in magic. A friendship with me is one filled with unexpected rituals, ceremonies, and ways to make the mundane meaningful.

4) I have a loud, infectious laugh. So when you are nervous up on stage or at the podium, with me in the audience, you will KNOW someone is loving what you’re doing. And it will transfer to the audience and boost responses at LEAST 30%. Either that or the people in my immediate vicinity will move.

5) Meaningful conversation is my forte and I’m comfortable at those crossroads that challenge us with deeper truths, where we grow and change the most. It’s my father and my mother in me, the preacher and the teacher, the mind and the heart. Whether it’s one you need or both, you’ll find there’s no topic off limits and I embrace wherever you’re at. But if it’s quiet you need, you’re in luck. I find nothing quite as meaningful as silence shared.

Submitted for your consideration,

with enthusiasm,

Jewell
