Monday Meet and Greet with Ariana

This week we ask Ariana Shore some personal questions. She finds a way to make them ridiculously personal.

Ariana was last seen in The Short Play Lab Festival yesterday as Mira in Plastic Flamingo’s production of “Reviewed”.

Ariana, where are you?
I'm sitting on my couch, in my apartment, laptop in lap.

What are you wearing?
I'm wearing a turquoise muumuu right now. It goes past my knees. Sexy.

Yeah… So then what do you WISH you were wearing?
I wish I were wearing my green muumuu. It has a bear on it, holding
A pot, a plant, and a shovel and it says “HARRY POTTER”. Get it? I
Love it. The cotton is so soft.

When was the last time someone clapped for you?
The last time someone clapped for me was last night, in my bedroom.

ha, no. I really don't remember.

When was the last time someone booed you?
The last time someone booed me I definitely remember. I left a party early because I was tired and hungry and that combination turns me into a gremlin-- When I explained this to the party people they booed me. NO, I didn't deserve that! I would have literally turned into a gremlin in front of their eyes. Inappropriate at a midtown bar. Now at a bar in the East Village....

Who is your least favorite Plastic Flamingo member?
WHAT? My least favorite member? You gotta be kidding me. I'm a
classy lady in a muumuu. I can't gossip like this ok fine twist my
arm. Well, I guess I will say Ross because if I said anyone else
they would take it personally and I think Ross is the ONE person who could care less if I like him or not. Don't get me wrong, that's an awesome quality... I wanna be like Ross.

Careful, he’s now going to make that into a t-shirt or something. Finish this sentence:
I would have been a star if I were born _________ Black.

What are you reading these days?
I'm reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. I'm sick of
the ridicule I get for not reading past the fourth book. Bullies.

What would you be doing with your life if you weren’t an actor?
If I weren’t working in the theater I would be a dermatologist. I
think picking pimples is my real talent.

Interested in sleeping your way to the top?
No, I'm not going to sleep my way to the top. Not that anyone has
offered me the opportunity.

If you could live in the world of ANY play, what would it be?
It would probably be in any Nicky Silver play. Just to interact with any of those characters would be hysterical. Except in Pterodactyls... I don't wanna live in that play. NOOOOOO.

Based on your day today, who should adapt it into a play?
Based on the day I'm having, the MOST talented person in the world. You would need all the talent in the world to make a girl sitting on the couch, in her muumuu, watching 'The View' something worth watching.

Okay, give us a warm and fuzzy Plastic Flamingo memory.
My favorite Plastic Flamingo memory would be the rehearsal for Finger Paint where Nick was under a sheet, pretending to go down on me, yet I looked down and found him by my belly button. We then spent the next 20 minutes explaining to Nick where my "lady" was and how to pleasure a woman. He was horrified. I loved every second of it.


So did we.
