Thank You & #FarewellOrphanBlack
Just a few words I want to share to the cast and creators and of course to clone club:
Ari: Dude. You came on after the show was in full swing and knocked it out of the park. You took on a (unannounced to you at the time) Herculean task of also playing a ton of clones and you did it with ease. The At least that’s how it seems from an audience perspective. Congrats.
Evelyne: If you don’t know already, you mean a lot to a lot of people. You have given your character so much depth and it’s incredible to watch.
Graeme & John: Thank you for creating this show. That you for giving space and a platform for these strong female characters to watch and learn and grow with and from. I cannot wait to see what upcoming projects you put out there. You are masters and I applaud and admire you both.
Jordan: When I watch Felix I cannot believe that you play him. He is a fully rounded 3 dimensional person. You have mentioned how you keep anticipating running into Felix on the street and that makes total sense to me. He’s like a completely separate entity from your own. You are a true artist. Also your dialect work is out of this world. As a voice over artist myself I can only dream of being able to control my voice the way you do.
Josh: I’d like to say first thank you for your connection with fans. You’ve answered several of my questions over the years and have often made yourself available to chat with us and connect with us about the show. Serious props for that. Second of all, your character of Scott is so wonderful and sweet and subtle. You also have stellar timing! It’s a true treat to watch you.
Kathryn: The cast and crew and clone club sing your praises but honestly it doesn’t feel like that’s enough. You are the unsung hero that the casual watcher (I don’t know if there’s such a thing for this show) has no idea the amount of work and dedication you have put in to it. You are the definition of a selfless actor. I strive for that in my own work. It’s not about just one person. It’s about the whole. Thank you for doing that extremely important work and reminding us that that’s what it’s really all about.
Kevin: Your performances always captivate me. The connection that you have with your scene partners and with the audience is so top notch. I strive to make those strong connections as an artist. Watching your work makes me feel like I’m in master class. Thank you.
Kristian: You. Are. Dope. I seriously love your work. Your timing is always spot on. You inspire me as a comedian constantly.
Maria: Your work is outstanding. Just simply outstanding. Thank you for letting us all be your chickens!
Tatiana: There’s not enough time to say all the things, but also I think (I hope) you know all the things. Everyone has said all the things. You’re amazing, inspiring, and the best actor of our generation. Thank you. (Also your shoe game is always on POINT!)
CloneClub: Thank you to the galaxy of sestras and brother sestras for letting me be a part of this community. For accepting me. For theorizing with me. For creating art for me. For obsessing with me. For meeting up with me in person and showing me kindness. For making me laugh. For inspiring me. For all the things! It’s been an honor. It’s been quite a trip and even though the show is over, Cloneclub will never be done. This community and the show’s legacy will live on forever because of all of you. Thank you.
