Coming soon to a theatre near you…
…(if you live in Saskatoon, that is)…me!
Looks like I’ll be part of the cast for Beauty and the Beast at Persephone Theatre in Saskatoon in December. Should be fun, and it’s also exciting because this will be the show that launches the brand-new downtown theatre: I gather our first preview will also be the theatre’s grand opening night. Very cool!
I auditioned for the Beast but didn’t get that; instead, I’ll be playing Monsieur Dark, who runs the asylum Gaston tries to get Belle’s father committed to, and “as cast,” which could mean anything from villagers to wolves to animated dinnerware–or all three.
If you’re in the vicinity, hope to see you in the audience!
