My dance teacher told me about it...I don't know, her teacher told her, and I'm not gonna try because the lights are always going out at my studio anyway. ;)

That explains why, during a ballet class, a dancer and I were flirting before she left to go to the bathroom (that sounds weirder then it should) so I did one of those whistles that notes beauty. And when she came back-the bathroom was broke! I was like OMG! Oh Mishkin Glockenspiel! (i totally just made that acronym up)

During yesterday's matinee I was singing "Sad and Sordid Saga.." and I accidentally sang the 3rd verse instead of the verse "I sighed, I cried.." Of course I eventually ran out of music, and I was just like a deer in headlights not knowing what to do. I just decided to sing the song over again from the "Hubert..!" so the orchestra could find where I was singing! :-O It was tragic!

Les Miserables closing night-because it was my high school director's favorite show, everybody knew that my director was retiring that year and it would be the last time many of us would perform under him :'-( and my best friend was going off to college that fall, and we both knew it'd probably be the last time that we'd ever act together :-(

1) What was the first play you ever did?
Shenandoah in... 1995?
2) What was your most recent show? What job/role?
The News in Revue (still running), Assistant Production Manager
3) What was your favorite show/role?
Dr. Pangloss in Candide
4) What was your most challenging show/role?
I did a scene from Burn This as Pale, which was very weird, but oddly enough a lot of his situation mirrored things in my life at the time, so I was able to use those (even though I'm not a coked up, middle aged, cheating New Jersey restaurant owner).
5) What is the most bizarre show or role you've ever done?
the dreamer examines his pillow by John Patrick Shanley
6) Has anyone ever written a show for you?
Stuart Fingeret claims to have written the role of Eugene Limon in Count Glookliech Has Arrived with me in mind.
7) Have you ever quit a show to accept a better one?
Not yet, haha. And seeing as I don't perform (except at dinner) I don't think that will happen.
8) Have you ever completely blown character on stage?
Probably.
9) What show(s) are you just dying to do?
If I were still performing, my two dream roles are Harry McAfee in Bye, Bye, Birdie and Polonius in Hamlet
10) Have you ever done one of your "dream" shows?
Sweeney Todd twice... now that's a real dream!
11) Who was/were your favorite director(s)?
Jon Gellert (Candide) and Melissa Hart (The Wild Party)
12) Who was your least favorite director?
This is a terrible question
13) What is the most surprising role you have ever been offered?
I didn't think I'd be able to pull off Pirelli.
14) Have you ever injured yourself onstage or offstage?
Running around the theatre for an entrance in Candide, I slipped on loose pebbles and fell face first onto the ground. My teeth went right into my lower lip, and when I was sure my nose wasn't broken, I went on and gave the next monologue with blood in my mouth. Good times.
15) What show(s) have you done multiple times?
Sweeney Todd
16) What was your scariest moment in a show?
Fifth grade. The Tales of Hans Christian Anderson. Opening night, scene one. Casey Roberts and I were sitting on a wagon. I played Hans and he played the little boy who follows Hans around. Casey stood up to say his first line, the weight in the wagon shifted and the next thing I knew, I was on my back on the floor looking up at the lights. So, I propped myself up and the show went on. But it was confusing for a moment.
17) What is your best show memory?
Riffing off of my brother and adding about five minutes worth of ad libs to closing night of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum.
(Either that or last night when my friend dragged me into her cabaret act to sing an impromptu rendition of "The Ballad of Herm," which is definitely the dirtiest song I've ever written.)
18) What is your worst show memory?
As fun as it was, Singin' in the Rain was a pretty awful show.
19) What is your saddest show memory?
I wasn't in the show, but a dear friend of mine was in Children of Eden as Yonah, who sings "Stranger to the Rain" in Act Two. That was summer of 2003. She passed away in a car accident summer of 2005, so that song holds an even deeper sentiment for me.
20) Do you have any theatrical superstitions?
All of them.

I'm an improv performer and teacher... sometimes stuff just comes out, and sometimes even I'm amazed at how funny it is.
I work on a show called The News in Revue and at the performance last weekend, one of the actresses ad-libbed something, turned around and looked at the other actors' faces and just started laughing. It was awesome!
