Sweeney Todd

I played Judge Turpin and built an entirely from-scratch chair with the help of Chris, Zach and Danny. I felt that a lot of productions I found online were either too flimsy, too obviously repurposed from an existing chair, or lacked complexity by only having a single moving part. It was very important to me that the foot rest section would transform and create a smooth line to the trap door. I took inspiration from the current revival version with its twisted metal design and the movie version with its thick wooden carved lion heads. The “wood” is 3d printed and Zach welded up all the steel. Chris created the upholstery. The set was built by Robbie who provided a clever trap door setup.

Catch Me if You Can

I played Carl Hanratty. Favorite role yet!

Amelie

I played Bretodeau and Elton John and built the telescope prop.

Into the Woods

I built props of the Witch’s Staff, and mounted heads for the characters of Milky White and The Wolf. All huge, 3d printed props and I made the staff emit smoke remotely. I was in Jekyll and Hyde at this time so that’s why the picture below has a REALLY stupid beard.

Jekyll and Hyde

I played General Glossop and had to live this this beard day to day for a few weeks. Anything for the show.

Legally Blonde

This was my first musical and probably one of my favorite parts I’ll ever have. I was given the part of Professor Callahan, who is more or less the villain of show. I was going for a much less involved part but in my heart was daydreaming of playing him, and I can’t believe I actually got to do it. I also built the Rufus dog bone shaped cake out of extruded polystyrene, modeling past, and 3D printed letters.
