Village Idiom

TIM BIANCALANA

Author - SAG Actor - Performance Artist - Illustrator

A native of Chicago, Tim began his artistic journey attending Columbia College where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Graphic Design. After graduation, he landed a job at the London-based advertising agency, Ogilvy & Mather, as a graphic designer in the Chicago creative group.

Since that first gig, Tim has continued to be a creative through his writing, acting and drawing. Moving to Los Angeles in 1993, he made a commitment to his acting career and has studied with Paul Sylvan, Charlie Adler, and Jason Robards III to hone his skills and evolve into the performance artist he is today. He's also been learning guitar with David Kaufman and is working with singing coach, Vince Lonergan to add to his repertoire.

Tim took creative writing in college and sharpened his wordsmith skills by working his craft. Having a natural passion for writing he decided to create original lyrics, poetry, short stories, songs and illustrations in the style and spirit of the late John Lennon to express himself creatively and as a sincere tribute to Lennon's life. The amazing result is Tim's first published book and performance CD --- Village Idiom.

Village Idiom, written and illustrated by Tim Biancalana, is a mix of irreverent, intellectual humor stirred with imaginative word play and wit reminiscent of the lyrics and writings of John Lennon...with a dash of Monty Python.

The more than two-year process of writing, illustrating and performing this original work has culminated in Tim's one-man show. Whether you read the book, hear the performance CD, or experience the comedic energy on the theater stage, Village Idiom, is expected to attract rave reviews from Beatles fans and sophisticated audiences in venues throughout the United States.

When Tim is not creating or performing you can find him speed skating and working out, experimenting with photography, playing his guitar, helping people with his knowledge of alternative medicine and blissfully enjoying the Santa Monica sunshine with a collection of interesting friends.

Thank You, EarthquakeMonica sunshine with a collection of interesting friends.
