NOW IN NEW ORLEANS!

Although I will still work in Los Angeles, I am now hanging my hat in New Orleans, LA.

WRAPPED

Location Managed "Winged Creatures" for Designer Max Biscoe and Director Rowan Woods. The film stars Forest Whitaker, Guy Pearce, Kate Beckinsale and Dakota Fanning. Location Managed Alaska and South Dakota for Sean Penn's film "Into the Wild." 6 months on the road seeing things I'd never seen.

IN POST

a supporting role in "Monster Movie." I play a reptile expert known as "Mr. Expert." Among the stars of this movie is Ted Lange, best known as "Isaac" from the Love Boat!

Wrapped

"Tango Til They're Sore" A world premiere from Writer/Director Matthew Hancock, presented by
The Inkwell Theater Love, terrorism, and of course, tango Backstage West said "the performances ring with psychological depth....Jabaley's shlubby Oleg is a delight..." The Beverly Press/Park La Brea News says "Jabaley's Oleg is totally engaging as he connects the proceedings to reality"

OFF INTO THE ETHER

"Firefly" and "Dragnet" RIP. Great casts to work with, fun shoots, and at least my episodes got aired before the ax fell. And I got to meet the man who created "The Tick!" Spoon!

Now Closed

the
Theatre Banshee production of "Mine Eyes Hath Seen."
"This theatrical montage, created and compiled by director-narrator Sean Branney and Leslie Baldwin, gives us the Civil War in close-up, providing a view that is epic and intimate, gut-wrenching and funny... The eight actors give [the characters] all passionate, eloquent voices." **PICK OF THE WEEK** - LA Weekly

"Director Sean Branney has accomplished something rather astonishing with this quietly epic new piece created with Leslie Baldwin...Eight fiercely committed and extraordinarily gifted actors inhabit the skins of slaves, generals, foot soldiers, and presidents...This is the kind of original piece that should be optioned by some fatly funded community-arts organization..." ***CRITIC'S CHOICE*** Backstage West

"rousing, well-staged, thoughtfully performed and ultimately cathartic...the performers all rise handsomely to the emotional demands of the occasion...Humorous, harrowing and always eloquent, the accounts of these long-dead diarists and correspondents are guaranteed to stick in the memory." *Recommended* The Los Angeles Times

NOW ON DVD

"Purgatory Flats." In this indie feature I play a trucker who brings Vince Vintresca to a small town in the middle of nowhere....Click on the gallery page to see a photo!

In Reruns

An appearance on the ABC Comedy "Rodney." It's Thanksgiving, and kleptomaniacal Uncle Leonard comes over for dinner.....

Too Many reviews for "Red Noses" and "What the Butler Saw"

What the Butler Saw and here
Red Noses

from the Long Beach Press-Telegram review of "Loot"

"Although his appearances are brief, John Jabaley, who portrays Police Officer Meadows,makes the most of his scenes. Jabaley is both funny and delightful."
