Holiday Performances

Here's a photo of Jacob, John, and me performing with the Palladium Theatre in Die Fledermaus on Dec. 29 and 30. Jacob and John were covering, or backing up principle artists and both had performing opportunities.

Jacob's principle actually broke his leg the second day of rehearsal, so he got the opportunity to do a full principle rehearsal run and performance of the show, appearing in the program and everything else! John's principle became ill the second day of performance, so John got the chance to sing the part from the orchestra pit while the principle actor performed the part on stage (ok, I admit it, it was me - I had a raging respiratory infection - ouch!).

I was able to stage direct the show and sing as part of my work at the Palladium Theatre as their Opera Director. Future performances I have coming up as singer and director are playing Marcello and directing La Boheme in June, playing Belcore and directing Elixir of Love in December, and playing Don Giovanni and directing in June 2008.

Anyway, here we are on stage after the final performance -
