Happy New Year, everyone.
Closing afternoon of A Christmas Carol at the Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey was a bittersweet day. I'm so blessed to have been able to work among such craftsmen, and I am forever grateful.
I'll be playing a show at The Bitter End next week, Sunday, January 15th, at 10:30 pm. Tickets are $5. The address is 149 Bleecker Street, Lower East Side, NYC. I'd love to see you there.

I can't believe it's November already. There is so much exciting stuff going on.
I started rehearsals today for A Christmas Carol at the Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey. The environment is so incredibly welcoming, supportive, and collaborative. I'm in heaven.
Also, I can finally announce that I'll be spending some time in Boston this spring: I'll be partying with a big man-eating plant in Little Shop of Horrors at the New Repertory Theatre. I cannot WAIT.
Happy November, everyone.

Why, hello there. Welcome to my slimmer and trimmer website. (We both went on a diet.) Click around to learn more about me. If you get bored, there's always Sporcle.
There are several things that you might need to catch up since I shut down the site to rearrange it back in June 2011. Here's a recap of the past few months (and looking ahead into November):

Why, hello there. Welcome to my slimmer and trimmer website. (We both went on a diet.) Click around to learn more about me. If you get bored, there's always Sporcle.
There are several things that you might need to catch up since I shut down the site to rearrange it back in June 2011. Here's a recap of the past few months (and looking ahead into November):
JULY 2011
- I finished my contract (and composed the music/lyrics to two more ESL children's musicals: Charlie's Video Game Adventure and Finding Home) with the Gyeonggi English Village Edutainers in Paju, South Korea
- I moved to New York City (Brooklyn, really) to continue trying this whole acting and songwriting thing.
- I landed a regular slot with the Singer/Songwriter Sessions on Sundays at NYC's renowned Bitter End
- My solo show Billy & Blake (currently in development) was picked up for its premiere staging with the Tongue in Cheek Theatre's Plus One Solo Show Festival. The festival will run Sunday and Monday, November 20th and 21st, 2011, both at 8 pm, at the Bridge Theater, 244 W. 54th Street, 12th Floor, New York City. For tickets, visit SmartTix.com.
