May 18, 2022
Scene from "The Oracle"

It’s been a privilege to play Leo in “The Oracle,” a new comedy by T. J. Elliott and Joe Queenan. Terrific script requiring vocal gymnastics, a wildly talented cast, and creative and endlessly supportive direction by T. J. We are happily sold out tonight and Sunday, and the other performances are getting close to capacity. […]

“Death Meets Toby”

May 29, 2019

It’s not often that a script speaks to you on a very deep level. Death Meets Toby was that script. In Toby’s final moments, as he closes the garage door with the engine running, he travels deeply into his mind and hallucinates and revisits the fears and losses of his life. Beautifully written and sensitively […]

This was a real blast playing a father who gets caught with you-know-what on his laptop. He tries to pawn it off on his son, who is way ahead of him… Deftly directed by Elise Raven and expertly shot by Paul Ward, this piece has an edge in the midst of its humor. What fun […]

“Mise En Scène Des Morts” (in French) – Jean Pierre

January 19, 2019

What a rare opportunity to shoot a film all in French, courtesy of talented director João Pedro Drumond. In an alternate reality, Jean Pierre (me) is a world famous photographer, arch nemesis to the protagonist Antoine (beautifully played by pro Pascal Yen-Pfister — It was my fortune to watch him work.). I was truly struck […]

Meaningful few days shooting a short from Columbia grad student Jingling Zhang. It’s a beautiful story about a single father (me) and his teenage daughter (intuitively played by Mika Wurf). I so enjoyed working with this production team. So smart and creative. Looking forward to our next time together!
