Writer Biography - Sara Gaston

If you want to learn all about my credits, feel free to check out my resume page, IMDB page, Actor’s Access Page or Casting Networks page. What you really need to know is that I’ve been acting for over 30 years and I’ve worked in almost all areas of the business including film, television, theatre, improv, sketch comedy, animation, commercials, and voice-over! I've also been a producer on several features including "Lars the Emo Kid", "The Central Authority", "Dead of Knight", and "Conjoined". In addition, I love the outdoors, yoga, hiking, the mountains, painting, animals and pretty much every kind of travel & adventure. Oh, and I have 2 bunnies, Maple and Maui, that live the high life in my home.

In addition to my film/TV/commercial stuff, I’ve appeared on many stages throughout Houston, including The Hobby Center, The Alley, Main Street Theater, Stages, and Mildred’s Umbrella, to name a few. I took my sold-out, one-woman show “Red Hot Patriot – The Kick-A** Wit of Molly Ivins” to California, courtesy of Main Street Theater, California State University and the lovely John Mayer, PhD. I received a B.A. in Drama from the University of Texas at Austin. Forever a student of this fascinating craft, I have continued my studies with The Groundlings, Jeff Perry (Steppenwolf Theater, “Scandal”), Second City (Dave Razowsky, Rick Kuhlman), The Margie Haber Studio, Leslie Kahn, Kim Rubenstein, Guy Roberts (Prague Shakespeare Company), and Evelyn Case.

Writer Statement

Although I've been a writer my whole life, and have written a play, poems, essays, remembrances, a blog, and a book, my focus until recently has been primarily as an actor and occasional producer. However, I have decided to take the bull by the horns, so to speak, and create my own projects. I've been studying with the Groundlings for a few years now and have been writing sketches. Most recently I was awarded a grant by the city of Houston to direct my first short film. Writing screenplays is simply another branch on the tree of storytelling - something I was born to do.
