I'm an actor, and I think some of us who are drawn to this work know what it is to desperately want to be loved and validated: to be good at something and not be able to do it; to come in second on countless projects; or told that you were the first choice, but the part went to that guy who had that TV show in the '90s.
I was doing television and films for a good five years, and then I booked 'Cry-Baby.'
I was hell-bent on being a soccer player all through junior high and high school.
I did 'Rock of Ages' when it was in both L.A. and Vegas, playing the lead, Drew.
I did my fist show, 'Godspell', in my freshman year of high school.
My aunt Marcia Cope-Hart was in 'Phantom Of the Opera' in San Francisco for quite a few years when I was growing up, so we would go into the city a lot to see her.
We're always trying to find a way to make contact with the community.
We are proud to bring the world-renowned leader in diabetes care and education to the Las Vegas Valley. Diabetes is a major disease affecting our local community at a rate that exceeds both state and national norms. If not properly treated, it can be a life threatening and debilitating. We look forward to working with the Joslin staff in Boston to ensure that our care meets the standards of this international leader in diabetes treatment, research and education.
It's about appreciating the quality of our architecture. It's an asset that I want to be nurtured and strengthened rather than changed.
Dad is in commercial real estate. Mom is a writer and a retired teacher.
It's interesting because when you're in a show for a year, your life really isn't your own for that whole period.
Eight shows in six days can become very tiring - actually, a grind. It's not that I ever dreaded going to work because I always maintained a level of gratitude.
I have rarely met a musical I haven't liked.
