If you're reading this, that means the new version of my site is live and powered up on the World Wide Web. With a sleeker design, more sensible structure, and a cleaner flow, I'm hoping to keep this new version up to date and filled with content until I get the usual web designer's urge to redesign. Based on previous history, that should kick in after a week or two.

With any luck, I'll resist the urge. I like the new site, and I've got other stuff to pay attention to.

Heidi Heilig and Mike Pettry, the writers of The Time Travelers Convention, recently got in touch with me about reprising my role of Tim Edwards on the official cast album. They said they're putting together their dream cast out of all of those who've done versions of the show, so I'm totally honored that I'm their first pick for Edwards.

It's going to be cool to get back into a studio, too. I don't get to sing with people often enough these days.

I was nominated for "Best Actor in a Musical" for my second-in-a-lifetime performance as Harpo Marx in A Night in the Kremlin, an original musical by Bernard Besserglik, directed by Cosmin Chivu. The story features Harpo going solo on his tour of Russia...while Stalin is hard at work establishing the Soviet Union. The interweaving of history and comedy is quite clever, and the show was really nicely received. It was a great opportunity to play my hero again! The show itself was also nominated, as were two of my co-stars and the writers. Angus Hepburn, as the incredible, edible Stalin, performed a scene with me at the awards ceremony — it was fun to be back together again!
