Gina Wilhelm Actress
Hi, my name is Gina Wilhelm. I started acting when I was 5 years old, and I work on stage, musical theatre, film, and television.
I do voice overs and radio.
(I had my own radio show when I was 12 years old, and it was detailed in the National Geographic World magazine).
I am new to blogging, but you can find me on Facebook, and my voice page is here, and my acting page is here. Here is my resume.
I love acting because it makes me feel like I'm going somewhere and my life has meaning. I enjoy the energy that comes from being in front of an audience. I love the opportunity to portray characters very different from myself, because it is exciting. It's fun!
I am glad you found me. I hope you will hire me or come see one of my shows. Thank you very much!

This week marks the opening of "Hanako and the Cherry Tree (The Pitfalls of Mr. Yama)." This beautiful puppet show includes four different styles of puppetry.
This puppet play tells the stories of a miser who discovers a magical cherry tree on his property. When a young girl comes on his property, they form an unlikely friendship, and misfortunes ensue when he swallows a cherry pit.
This Japanese tall tale includes an oni and tengu (mythical goblins) and a giant serpent! It also explores the theme of tradition versus modern values.
I play Hanako, the little girl. This is particularly fun, as the last time I did this show five years ago, I played a completely different role.
All voices are performed live by me and fellow puppeteers Andre Nelson, Amy Escobar, and Zane Exactly. We use a variety of puppet styles including Japanese Bunraku-style, rod puppets, shadow puppets, and black light puppets to tell this story in the Rakugo traditions.
The script was adapted by Jean Enticknap. Jean also directed this lively production.
This show is recommended for ages 3 and up.
This play has laughs, scares, and magic galore! Don't miss our fun, beautiful show!

Seattle Actress
Seattle Actress
Hello, I'm Gina Wilhelm, Seattle Actress!
Right now I'm in tech rehearsals for my new puppet show, "Merry Chris Mouse," which opens on Wednesday. Public shows start this weekend, and run every weekend until Christmas throughout Seattle and Bellevue. This sweet show features skilled tabletop puppetry and a song that would later by sung by The Lovemongers (the group made of Ann and Nancy Wilson from Heart, Sue Ennis, and Frank Cox)!
While performing that, I'm also in the final rehearsals for "Brother Coyote and Sister Fox," another puppet show, which we will be touring to the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta, Georgia, in January. This will be my third trip to the Center, and my fourth tour with Thistle Theatre. I'm very excited!
In my spare time, I continue to study tap dance and voice as well as work on various side projects. I even have a murder mystery dinner coming up in a couple of weeks!
Stay tuned to this site to find out more about "Merry Chris Mouse" tickets and get more updates on my projects!

It's the holiday season, and that means it's time for Thistle Theatre's holiday show. This year we bring back "The Gingerbread Boy" at various locations throughout the Seattle area.

This week marks the opening of "Baba Yaga and the Bag of Gold." This is our fall show, marking the beginning of our performing season. Shows will be presented throughout the Puget Sound.
This puppet play is a Russian wonder tale telling the story of Ivan, his older sister Vasilisa, and their quest to save their family's gold from the witch Baba Yaga.
This is the same Baba Yaga that some of you may know from "Pictures at an Exhibition," and yes, the hut on chicken (or fowl) legs DOES make an appearance in this play. It even dances.
I play Vasilisa, Ivan's smart older sister; Baba Yaga's cat; Mika, a mouse; and Baba Yaga in one of her more attractive forms.
All voices are performed live by me and fellow puppeteers Ben Burris and Zane Exactly. We use Japanese Bunraku-style and black light puppets to tell our story.
The script was written by Jean Enticknap with music by Michael Flint. Jean also directed this lively production.
This show is recommended for ages 3 and up.

Thistle Theatre's winter/spring show has arrived. We present "The Tiger and the Dried Persimmon" at various locations throughout the Seattle area.
This is a retelling of a Korean folktale about a young tiger who goes down the mountain in search of food. When he hears a mother silence her daughter's crying with a kotgum (dried persimmon).
The naive tiger believes that a kotgum must be a very fearsome creature. He runs into a superstitious thief, and hilarity ensues.
I play a magpie, which is the voice of the common people in Korean folklore. I also play the mother and the little girl as well as a butterfly, a turtle, some dragonflies, and two members of the village band.
All voices are performed live by me and fellow puppeteers Alex Cantrell and Zane Exactly. We use a variety of puppet styles including Japanese Bunraku-style, shadow, and rod puppets to tell and sing this traditional story.
All the live singing (there is some folk-singing to set scenes that was prerecorded) is done by me, and there is a delightful sequence where the tiger's imagination comes to life.
The show also features shadow puppets showing characters talking inside a house. I do that, too.
The script was written by Jean Enticknap with Hyeon-soog Chang and Andrew Kim. Jean also directed this lively production.
This show is recommended for ages 3 and up.
The shows at Magnuson Park Theatre shows are on March 1 and 2 at 1 and 3 p.m. The theater is in Magnuson Park in building 47. The address is 7110 62nd Ave NE in Seattle.

Gina Wilhelm Actress - Anchorman 2
"Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues" opens today, and I'm excited to see it. Will Ferrell has been EVERYwhere in character as pompous newsman Ron Burgundy, never failing to entertain.
Is the hype worth it? Will it live up to the original? Have you seen it already? What did you think?

Saturday, April 27, is the National Day of Puppetry for 2013. The National Day of Puppetry falls on the fourth Saturday each April.
This is a good chance to watch a puppet show, read about famous American puppeteers, or make a puppet of your own.
If you didn't get to a puppet show today, consider going to one on Sunday.
If you can't do that, I have put up a number of puppet videos at my Facebook fan page.
And please enjoy this video of Jim Henson, Don Sahlin, and Muppeteers making simple puppets. Make a puppet with them!
Happy National Day of Puppetry!

Tabletop Puppetry Workshop
Gina Wilhelm Actress - Tabletop Puppetry Workshop
Today the puppeteers of Thistle Theatre gave a workshop on tabletop puppetry at the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta, GA.
We have been in Atlanta for most of the month of January presenting our show "Brother Coyote and Sister Fox," and today gave this workshop.
The workshop was also presented simultaneously as a webinar, which was recorded.
It should be possible for people who were not able to see the webinar today to view it in the future. Stay tuned to this blog to find out more about that.
During the workshop, Thistle's puppeteers demonstrated tabletop puppetry techniques and invited workshop participants to try their hands with Thistle's puppets.
Tabletop puppetry is a modified form of Bunraku, a Japanese puppetry form, but performed on a table (Bunraku is performed in mid-air, rather than on a solid surface).

Mockingbird Lane
Gina Wilhelm Actress - Mockingbird Lane
NBC aired "Mockingbird Lane" Friday night.
The program, produced by "Pushing Daisies" creator Bryan Fuller, was intended to be a reboot and update to "The Munsters."
This version was far grittier than the original, meant to appeal to audiences who watch "Once Upon A Time," "True Blood," and "Grimm." In fact, "Mockingbird Lane" gave a modest ratings bump to the latter show.
"Mockingbird Lane" featured Jerry O'Connell as Herman, still constructed from other body parts, but with a less square head. The role was originated by Fred Gwynne.
Portia de Rossi played Lily, and Eddie Izzard was Grandpa.
The program was originally intended as a pilot for a new TV series. That series was never picked up, though there is speculation that if the ratings had been high enough, NBC would have ordered more episodes.
