A little personal news
After a three-decade hiatus, I’m making my return to the performing stage as Maury in the Empress Theater’s production of “Disaster! The Musical!” It’s a hilarious spoof of 1970’s disaster films. If you’re looking for some family-friendly entertainment, kindly consider grabbing some tickets. You’ll even get to hear me sing some of your favorite songs from the decade of leisure suits and wide collars.
