Squiggy and the Goldfish successfully completed its run at The Workshop Theatre on May 30th. We opened to great reviews and the show and cast have been nominated for several NY Innovative Theater Awards. Congratulations to the cast and crew for a job well done and I’m happy to have been a part of it.
In May, I had the honor of performing in a workshop of Tina Girlstar, a new musical composed by my very talented friend Brian Feinstein (Mimi Le Duck). The musical will be produced this summer at New York Stage and Film.
David, along with Nicole Brewer and Damien Gurganious of Biggest Loser: Couples won a contest through his new gym, and the prize was a really cool Yankee package. We got to go on the field for batting practice, where we met all the players, all of whom were very gracious and generous with their time. Then we got to have dinner at the NY Steakhouse (on the Yankees!) and watch the game from the Main Loge!
This month, after The Daily Show with John Stewart, you can look for me in a Microsoft commercial for their new search engine, Bing. Honestly, I don’t know exactly what it is, or understand what it does, but I’m in it, and the check’s in the bank!
Finally, a huge congratulations to the cast and crew of Billy Elliot on Broadway. The show took home 10 Tony Awards this month, including Best Musical, Best Actor (the Billy’s!) and Best Supporting Actor (the gracious and accomplished Greg Jbara). I feel so privileged to work with such brilliant performers and a dedicated crew. As I was standing in the wings the other night watching them manipulate the giant Maggie Thatcher puppet, I thought to myself, “My day job rocks!”
