Note of Interest: I'm playing with the idea of posting some clips of my work up here on this site, which would probably include this role. We'll see how it goes.

Song of the Day: War is a Science
I just got done doing a production of Pippin back in April, with a sort of repeat concert excerpt in May. It was a great experience and probably the most fun I have ever had doing a musical. I played King Charles and after watching this video from a recorded production of Bob Fosse's Pippin I am extremely grateful that I didn't watch it in advance. I clearly had a very different take on the character than what was originally designed and I'm glad my director allowed me to go there. Pippin isn't a great musical by any means, but it's a fun one and a ball for character actors like me to sink their teeth into. Enjoy.
