I'm very excited about tonight. After weeks of rehearsal, we're set to do the first run of Plea in front of a full house at the Long Center's Rollins Theater. Last year was fun, but this year's show is even better.
My character is based on "Finn" from Glee; I describe him as "aggressively wholesome" and "lovably clueless." As a bonus, tonight I'll be dancing the Time Warp as well as breaking out some moves to 70's funk.

Also, I'd like to thank my pals at Catalyst 8 for providing snacks for last night's dress rehearsal. The mixture of Chik-Fil-A nuggets and tasty Central Market cheese was quite tasty. And, or course, the generous spread made the long evening of rehearsal much more pleasant. Everyone in the show is a full time attorney by day, so the energy boost was quite helpful before the full evening of rehearsal. Catalyst 8, your generosity toward the Bar & Grill cast was greatly appreciated!
Catalyst 8 has a special connection to the Long Center's Rollins Theater, as this is where all of the recipients of the Catalyst 8 Boost Rental Subsidy perform. Having been on the Catalyst 8 Leadership Council since 2008, I am especially honored to have a second opportunity to perform in the theater space we know and love. Now that I've used the facilities twice, I am especially passionate about helping Austin's up and coming performing artists have access to such a fantastic theater space.
