 Troupers Light Opera is holding auditions for its spring production, The Mikado , at Union Memorial Church, Stamford, CT on Tues-Wed, Dec. 6 and 7th. The show will be directed by Tom Zimmerman, and I'm the musical director.
The Mikado is a riotously wonderful show, and (even though I've sung it many times in concert) I've never done a full production of it. So please come and join the innocent merriment! See the TLO website for more info and to sign up for auditions. |

So... BHT's Forum was a wonderful experience. It was very well-received and most performances sold out. On to the next...It looks like TLO's Mikado will be going up in early April. Stay tuned for audition info - auditions are just a few weeks away.
But... most exciting... I will be music-directing Savoynet Performing Group's annual production at the International Gilbert & Sullivan Festival in Buxton, England next summer! This will be my 5th Savoynet show, but first time music-directing. The show is The Sorcerer, will be performed August 8th and will be directed by the amazing Gary Slavin. If you're interested in participating, sign up for the Savoynet mailing list and look for audition info to be posted soon.

 We're now in rehearsal for Forum. It's going to be a hoot! Get your tickets early - there are nine performances, but it's a small house and it sells out quickly.
I can now announce officially what has been common knowledge for a while - I will be returning as music director for
Troupers Light Opera's spring show, The Mikado. Auditions and dates TBA. |

Troupers Light Opera's production of G&S on Wall Street opened this weekend - we'll be taking it to Gettysburg on July 2nd.
Then into casual music rehearsals for "Forum" with the principals - real rehearsals will start up in the fall.
Still no word on the American Prize competitions.
Finalists will be announced 'this week'.
I'm not sure why the Facebook banner page is listing my status as "Fledermaus sitzprobe tonight". That was months ago now, and the Facebook status ain't that no more. Must look at that when I have time. |
