Latest Show: Once Upon A Bedtime

Come check out a wonderful children’s show I’m performing in from March 20 – April 5 at California Theatre Center. “Discover the joyful stories of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Little Red Riding Hood and The Owl and the Pussycat as two young sisters preparing for bedtime convince their parents that their bedroom is a theatre and that they are all the actors in these beloved tales. For grades K-3.”

I love doing theatre for audiences in this age group. Many of them are experiencing live theatre for the first time. Judging by the laughter and enthusiasm we’ve heard during the show, it’s a big hit.What I love particularly about this show is getting to play my guitar again onstage during The Owl and the Pussycat. I even composed the music for this song and wrote some music for the sound design of the play.

New recordings

Hard at work on new songs and recordings…coming soon!
