Keepin' It Real

Not much new has happened lately around here, but we're both keeping very busy with our new responsibilities. Joseph opens at the Garden Theatre in less than two weeks and it's been incredible to watch it all come together!  I'm very excited to share that the role of Potiphar, my on-stage spouse, will be played by a local celebrity each night.  The list of names is shaping up to be very impressive from what I hear, so I'll post as soon as everything is nailed down, and I'll have ticket information too.  I'm also playing a gig at the downtown branch of the Orange County Library again this year to celebrate National Music Week.  If you're free around 11:30 on Monday, May 3, come on by to hear a song or two!

I had an amazing opportunity during the Easter season.  A friend of mine, to whom I am very grateful, recommended me to fill in with the eight-piece professional choir at the Basilica of the National Shrine of Mary, Queen of the Universe for their Holy Week services.  Performing with such an illustrious and talented group was a very fulfilling experience for me, and I hope I get the chance to go back and sing with them every once in a while. 

Eric is adjusting very well to his new surroundings.  He's closing tonight for the first time in this role, so I'm holding down the fort here at home, just bloggin' and having a relaxing night in to prepare for the intense rehearsal process resuming Monday evening.  It's gonna be a great show!
