My name is Rich Bateman.

The name by which I am known in performing circles, is Pendark.

Anyone not calling me Pendark gets flogged with wet noodles and cream cheese.

I am an experienced improv/mellowdrama actor as well as a special effects makeup artist and magician.

I have been lurking in doorways and casting my shadow over stages for fifteen years now. I have some unique ideas and as Montanna Smith will tell you, I bring that "creepy uncle" element to any party.

The industry has tried to push me away all those years and I keep coming back like a malignant tumor.

I hope to cast my shadow over Austin stages.

When I'm allowed to post it, you can all look up my website for everything you could possibly want to know about me and a few things you wish you didn't know.

And welcome to the Austin Improv forum. Mingle, lurk, stalk, whatever it is you creepy uncle-types do besides ask for someone to pull your finger.

Thanks for the welcome.

I intend to get into the group classes and such just to restrengthen my chops. I'm also looking forward to slots on TNA.

I hope to prove to be an asset to the group.

If you're the dude with special FX skillz, I'd definitely say you'll be an asset to the community.

Welcome.

Well, that depends on what you want, really. I'm mostly good at killing, maming, and mutilating people. I am afraid of fire, (bad childhood memory) but love playing with smoke and guns. I have lots of psychotic ways to make people ugly.

And one of my deepest, darkest fantasies is to bathe in a hot tub full of hot gellatin and latex. Oh, crap, I actually typed that. I should probably stop typing now. People will think Im a
