From the beginning of January through the end of March of 2014 I had the pleasure of working on the production of Les Miserable performed at Pentacle Theater. I was very involved in the blocking of the production. The director, Robert Salberg, assigned me all of the large group numbers and most of the scenes… Continue reading Les Miserables
I am finally getting around to blogging about the latest set I designed. I worked on Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory at Central High School. This was a hard set... first, because I am not all that excited about the script... and second, because there are so many different scene changes. I wasn't sure… Continue reading Willie Wonka
I just wrapped up a production of Crimes of the Heart at Central High School. Once again, I served as the Tech Director and Set Designer.

I had the extraordinary opportunity to direct The Secret Garden for the Pentacle Theatre, a local community theater in Salem. At first I wasn't sure about it. It’s a big show. It has very difficult music. It’s not a well known musical. However, I decided to attempt the show anyway with the encouragement of my friend Jeff… Continue reading Finding Myself in The Secret Garden

All he needed was a back drop that he wanted to look like the front of a huge family album or scrapbook and a giant book...… Continue reading Family Matters – a Play
For the past few months I've been working as the Apprentice Director at Pentacle Theater. An Apprentice Director at Pentacle Theater is a little more than an Assistant Director.... I gather. Actually, I did what I was trained to do as an Assistant Director... whatever the director didn't want to do, assigned me to do, or I could do… Continue reading Legally Blonde
The Arts in our public schools are disappearing at an alarming rate. The town next to us has cut the vocal program from their class schedules. The schools in my town have moved to offering ½ of the music program they had a few years ago. They don’t offer a theater program. The only theater… Continue reading Ways Being a Theater Major Set Me Up For a Successful Life
Once Upon a Mattress was an adventure! I drew out a basic plan, got director approval and went to work! The first step was to make more flats. I need something light enough to fly. I wanted to fly a giant 20x20 foot wall. This was going to by an adventure for sure! We brought… Continue reading Once Upon A Mattress – CHS 2013
Back in October my friend, Robert, ask me to design Suesical the Musical Jr. for his middle-school class. The set needed to be easily moved... they practice in a gym and then perform on a stage. They do not have time to "build" a set because the stage belongs to the high school. Kids need to be… Continue reading Seusical the Musical – Howard Street Middle School 2013
