Very excited to rehearse with David Fox and Shannon Taylor for Sam Shepard's one act played called 'When The World Was Green'. Directed by Peter Pasyk, this
show will be touring Toronto May 1-8th. Stay tuned!

March
Well, the tour is finished and I'm exhausted! What an emotional and rewarding experience. I met the Ruddick family and they took me in with open arms. It was a
wonderful experience meeting all the small communities and being a part of their lives and hearing stories about their relatives who died in the mines or
experienced the 'bump' in 1958. Please go to my theatre page and click on Firebrand Theatre to find out more information on the Springhill mining disaster.
I'm jumping back into teaching and starting rehearsals for a musical called 'Next To Normal'. It has a fantastic cast and it'll be running April 12th- 21st here in
Peterborough. To book tickets or to find out more information on this Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize winning musical, go to Arts For Awareness on their facebook
page. I'm playing keyboards for a musical called 'Legally Blonde' at Trent University. It's a funny story with fabulous music! I'm playing keyboard 2. Meaning, I'm
playing strings, glock, electric guitar, hammond organ, horns....And whatever else needs to be played!

February
My one man show has begun! I'm honoured to have Linda Kash directing. Check out her bio. She's done it all. But, you may know her as the Philadelphia Cream
Cheese Angel!...I'm starting the tour of 'Beneath Springhill: The Maurice Ruddick Story' in the GTA and Kawartha Region. I'll be performing two shows a day with my
technical director - Rob McGinnis joining me. Just the two of us in a van. It's alot of work loading and unloading four times a day - as well as performing - but it's a
living! After performing in Ontario I'll be headed to Nova Scotia and then Newfoundland. Yeah! Please go to my theatre page and click on Firebrand Theatre to find out
more information on how to book a show.
