actually, both Marin and I really try and leave it all at the theatre. Marin had the lions share of the drama in N2N. She began her day by getting depressed so that at curtain time she was primed to have her major mental breakdown at the top of the show. But at the time the curtain falls, she's grabbing my ass as we walk off stage. Gotta leave it all out there.

Well, DHP (David Hyde Pierce) and I had performed for over a year in the K&E musical CURTAINS. I have a penchant for dirty jokes and would tell a different one each show. He has a particular fondness for "blue" comedy and is really quite good at himself. He wrote me a birthday limerick that included the rhymes for Danieley as annually, manually and Cocker-Spanieley. I'll leave the rest to your imagination.

Well, I think FLOYD COLLINS is a show that should make it's way to Broadway. Our sound designer for THE VISIT Dan Moses Shrerer and Mary Beth Piel also worked on Floyd and we were saying that very thing.

I've been a part of a musical called SECONDHAND LIONS based on the 2002 movie with Robert Duval and Michael Kane, we did a run at the 5th Ave. theatre in Seattle two years ago. We are doing a new workshop on it in two weeks and I think it could possibly come in next season or the one after that. It's a really fun show that the whole family will like.

And I play a role unlike any anyone has ever seen me play. The Sultan of Oujda! An evil Moroccan Sultan. Yup! that's right.

Brian was my first roommate in NYC, actually Queens. He borrowed my car on several occasions. You don't know how rare a commodity it is to have four wheels in NYC. And Brian, NO. You can afford your own car or many cars now. :D

I bet Mr. Snow raked in the dough on that idea. right?

Working on THE VISIT is exactly what I wanted to do when I started performing. It's a musical that has something to say and is entertaining at the same time. I've been lucky enough to be a part of many shows like this. FLOYD COLLINS, NEXT TO NORMAL, THE HIGHEST YELLOW (Michael John LaChiusa in DC), DREAM TRUE (Ricky Ian Gordan) and they don't always make it to the Great White Way. This is one of those unique opportunities. I'm thrilled for audiences to see this great work. I'm hopeful that it will be recognized for the great piece of art that it is now and not years from now like some other K&E shows.
