DOUBTING THOMAS opens

Great opening night and this show really touches people in so many ways.   Michael Wollner is great along with Corie Woods and  Antonio Z.  Many friends coming to see it.  Thought it would not be the most interesting of the shows but people are really moved by it.  

Starting work on a WebTV program  HITTING THE WALL which is a COMEDY!!!

First Preview a great success. DOUBTING THOMAS

WELL  we had 20 ministers show up for the preview last night and they seemed to be locked in.  There was that one or two that had some issues with the topics.  Playwright got into it with a wayward Lutheran minister, so that was exciting.  But people in the cast and staff really getting wrapped up in to show and the topics it brings up.  Or "dredges up" as one of my cast mates has indication.  Really excited to open tonight.

CAST at Porchlight in GOLDEN BOY

Yay, got cast in my first musical at PORCHLIGHT Theatre doing GOLDEN BOY.  Porchlights Revisits program.   Character ROXY--which looks like a lot of comic relief.

Created for the great Sammy Davis Jr. and based on the classic play of the same name by Odets, it is the story of “Joe Wellington,” a young man from Harlem who, despite his family's objections, turns to prizefighting as a means of escaping his ghetto roots and finding fame and fortune while tragically falling in love with the girlfriend of his manager.
