...for procrastinating. For some reason I haven’t been able to log into Facebook for the past couple days. I really want to make a couple posts about my upcoming performances since I have a lot of local friends through that particular social network. It’s rather annoying ( Read more... )

Yup. Stubhub.com IS the best thing ever. Wow those were good seats.

to the ballgame! Sian and I are finally getting out to Comerica for the first time this season. The block party on opening day in Grand Circus Park was awesome, but nothing compares to catching a game live. We’ve got some spectacular seats, perhaps the best we’ve ever had. Section 131, row 15, I’m thinking just to the home plate side of the Tigers ( Read more... )

There is a new record in tapeball.

When we went into previews I wasn’t sure the show would make it a week, but we managed to ( Read more... )

What a business is the theatre, where just as the show finally opens, I find myself already on the prowl for more work. The grammar on that last sentence may be sketchy, but I like the way it sounds. Fortunately a few auditions are lining themselves up at just the right time. The JET has asked me to read for the part of Peter in their annual ( Read more... )

The first review of “It Should Be” has been published. Martin Kohn from the Detroit Free Press got things pretty well, I think. He mentions right off the bat that the audience loved it, but then proceeds to give an apt description of the production.
