Hey guys,
Little self-serving post here to say I'm leaving to star as Jamie in "The Last 5 Years" in Madison, Wisconsin. I'm pretty excited about it, I must say (who wouldn't be to get a chance to sing this score?). My Cathy is a brilliantly amazing singer and I'm very, very proud of how this production is going to turn out.
So, if you're in the Madison area November 3-6, drop on by and catch the production!
Best wishes to all.

Thanks, gals. I'm pretty excited about it. Of course, I always wish it were closer to New York, but I'll survive and it sounds like it's going to be a fun experience.

Thanks, Rath! We hear this famous NYC producer is coming to see it. His name is Mort Guffman. We even hear he might be taking us to Broadway!

Posted: 10/21/05 at 9:27pmDon't hold your breath (or save him a seat), Mr. Guffman was supposed to come to my all-white production of The Wiz, but he never showed.

Thanks, bs2.
Oh, and Andyf, the reason he didn't show is because you replaced me as the lead at the last second.
Please, you know I could have made you completely forget about Stephanie Mills.

Congrats, Bway.
I think it's wonderful that someone has finally decided to stage a version of The Last 5 Years featuring mentally handicapped actors.
Kudos to you.
