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.  


GOLDEN BOY

Book by Clifford Odets (Awake and Sing!) and William Gibson (The Miracle Worker)
Lyrics by Lee Adams (Bye, Bye Birdie, Applause)
Music by Charles Strouse (Annie, Rags)
Directed by Chuck Smith  Music Direction by Austin Cook 
One performance ONLY! Wednesday, February 26, 2014
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.
