Good All,

Just posting an update on a couple of my upcoming projects.

So far I've been in rehearsal for "A Dublin Bloom, an adaptation of James Joyce's "Ulysses" with Irish Repertory. Been rehearsing for about 10 days now. Still blocking, but everyone is pretty close to being off book. Since I have very little to do in the second act, this week has been pretty quiet for me. That changes later this week when we start running the acts. I'm having a great time playing "Blazes Boylan."

The website for the production is:

On Monday night, I'm doing a concert reading of "Auntie Mame," playing the role of Brian O'Bannion. The benefit is for Healthworks Theatre. Since we are rehearsing this weekend, I haven't met the rest of the cast, although, Barbara Robertson, an amazing performer at the Court Theatre, will be playing the title role.

Information about the production can be found at the company's website:

Otherwise, I spending my free time at my day job, gardening, doing the laundry and taking my voice lessons.

Take Care!
