i had the pleasure of performing CHARLIE in THE FOREIGNER. a great show, and so much fun to do. i'd never seen a professional production of it until i saw the current nyc production the day after thanksgiving, with MATT BRODERICK playing CHARLIE, and also starring FRANCES STERNHAGEN. so great to see it!
Definately as a featured company member in a twisted version of Godspell. We updated and changed the script so that the show was awesome. Not only that, I was still in the learning process, and I got to look up to my biggest acting role model as John the Baptist/Judas. I get shivers when I watch the video. NOn top of all this, it seems univerally accepted that Godspell is the show to do if you want to create a tight ensemble. I don't know what it is, but it's simply beautiful.

My favorite role to date:
Beatty in FAHRENHEIT 451 by Ray Bradbury, based on the novel of the same name. (Suggested reading to all!)
The most demanding, challenging and rewarding role I have played to date. Hands down.
Favorite part that I've played was Gloria in "Wait Until Dark", mainly because it was my first role ever... I learned so much during that show.
