My Testimonials

June 8, 2006
Dan is my best friend and one of the most important people in my life. He had an amazing amount of energy and always has too many things happening in his life. Listening to everything he does on a day to day basis makes me feel incredibly lazy in comparison. Even though he has the best intentions, he often is late, which drives me insane!. But you know if he says he's going to show up, he will show up...eventually....even if he's 5 hours late and everyone else has gone home. Somehow his presence keeps the party going into the wee hours of the morning, even if it was wrapping up when he got there. Dan frequently challenges himself in many ways and he amazes me on a regular basis. He is a great friend and an inspiration to me. My friendship with Dan has spanned most of my adult life and I can hardly think of a memory from the last 7 years where he doesn't factor in somewhere. He has given me so much and has made me a better person in a lot of ways. I cherish his friendship and wish him well in the future..

This guy has an annoying habit of knowing more then he should, or more than he ought to. If you find him with a rather dreamy dumb look upon his face, sitting in the corner, gibbering to himself, he can't say he wasn't warned. It just might be death by chocolate or rice krispies. ;)

Dan's an ass. But he pisses me off less then other boys so I keep him around.

In my tradition of mixing blog posts with shameless plugging, things went quite well overall with Yeomen over at Stanford last night. My favorite gaffe was when I suddenly couldn't remember that I was supposed to say the word "England" and instead substituted "Great Britain", and it says something about my long-term exposure to various Fair(e)s that my first thought was embarrassment over the anachronism of bringing that term to our show (set in Tudor England).

That being said, I can't he... read more

It's a Friday night and I just finished having dinner with my cousin at one of my favorite restaurants in the world over in Santa Cruz. If you ever come to visit and feel like trying a somewhat-adventurous completely vegetarian meal, the Malabar offers a refreshing change from most other veggie fare, and they were very sweet when my not-even-one-year-old second cousin started to make his presence a bit too well known.

Once again, I find myself in another show. This time it's yet another p... read more

You all have one more chance to catch me playing Frederic over at the Dickens Fair one-hour production of Pirates of Penzance. Normally I just play one of the pirates, but since the talented gentleman that normally plays him has a work obligation, I get one more chance to play. 1:30, Saturday December 22nd at the V&A, Cow Palace.

Here is a clip of our Hail Poetry from the first day of fair, when I was also playing Frederic.

Well... you have one more weekend to catch me in Kiss Me Kate over in Aptos. It's an hysterical show... and I'm really proud of everything that the cast and crew has done to bring this all together. I'm really enjoying playing "General Howell, " and "From This Moment On" is my favorite song I've ever gotten to sing in a Cabrillo Stage musical. All of our leads are strong singers and actors, and it's a pleasure to be able to say that I don't feel that this cast has any significant weak poin... read more
