I was a Co-Founder of Colabo Theatre in Las Vegas, NV. This was one of the most difficult things I’ve ever done in my life – artistically, emotionally, financially…
What an amazing output of high quality work (with minimal budget)!
Shows I helped Produce and/or Direct thru Colabo Theatre
Not Safe For Work. Tennessee Williams is my favorite American playwright. Orpheus Descending is not his best work, but I still like it. I play the redneck racist Sheriff Talbott.
I was born and raised in the South. I understand Tennessee Williams and the way he writes..
I was primarily cast as a Soldier (due to my shaved head, goatee’, and muscular size) throwing the wussy singer/dancer/Apostles around.
Priest Reel
I also had a few good moments as a Priest.
Ensemble
The Director gave me and Scott delGuidice a great compliment when we were Lepers. He said we had some great touching moments (of humanity) when we bumped into each other during the Leper scene.
9 Costume Changes!?!
Jesus Christ Superstar is one of the most difficult shows I’ve ever done – and I LOVED it! I am on stage practically the entire time. If I’m not onstage, I am offstage doing a quick costume change to go back on. I have 9 costumes changes – the most of any show I’ve ever done. I couldn’t do it without my 2 Wardrobe/Quick Change Ladies helping me.
This is a scene from Beyond the Sea. Robert Starling needed to gain experience as a Steadicam Operator. I was working as an Editor for his Production Company and his lead actor dropped out at the last minute. He knew I worked as an actor in LA and Miami, so he asked me to jump in at the last minute.
This is my first on camera acting since I went back to school at West LA College for a degree in MultiMedia in 1999.
I created this reel just after shaving my head in 1999. At the time I put this together, I was auditioning to play a Skinhead. Unfortunately, they didn’t cast me and the Feature Film never took off.
