hi, all.

just wanted to let you all know that starting wednesday, i will be appearing in "the laramie project" at mountain view college. from the show info:

"this is a documentary play about the murder of matthew shepard, a gay college student who was kidnapped, severely beaten and left to die tied to a fence on the outskirts of laramie, wyoming. after the event received national media coverage, moises kaufman and members of his company interviewed more than two hundred residents to create a chronicle of the life of the town of laramie in the year after the murder. the result is a deeply moving play about bigotry and tolerance, fear and courage, hate and hope."

the show requires actors to play multiple characters, and i'm playing matthew's best friend, the theatre professor at his college, and a meth head friend of one of the murders, among others. it's a challenging play, and i'd love it if you'd come out to see my work.
