As I promised, here are some photos from FIDDLER ON THE ROOF, (I was the butcher, Lazar Wolf), followed by a Biblical character, Tobias, in the film LOST LETTERS OF FAITH. There were some other professions---a priest, a drunk. (Don't say it)
  And a "must" role for a character actor is Lazar Wolf in FIDDLER ON THE ROOF. This time we're at the Oklahoma City Lyric
The Biblical Tobias in the film, LOST LETTERS OF FAITH. A less than Biblical group of grooms from FIDDLER
And so the story continues, by looking back a little...

(My Minister Dad was so proud.) (My Minister Dad was NOT so proud.)
In closing....
Last Spring, I completed a new production of MAN OF LA MANCHA for White Plains Performing Arts Center. This was the initial production for this jewel of a LORT Theatre. I just played JP Morgan and Grandfather in their concerts of RAGTIME, at WPPAC, as well. (The following production photos by Carlos Gustavo Monroy)

Many of you saw me reprise my roles in Hal Prince's production of CANDIDE, with the New York City Opera in March and April of 2008. What a terrific and creative year. (Photos on Gallery of Photos page)
And it continues, recently completed benefit concert performances of SHOWBOAT, at the acclaimed and historical venue, Carnegie Hall. Previously, I performed other wonderful concerts in that hall; one special concert was ANYONE CAN WHISTLE, with Scott Bakula, Madeline Kahn, Bernedette Peters and Angela Lansbury who played in the original production. Again, it was my great fortune to work with Stephen Sondheim.

My many friends and I have welcomed your visit, your interest, and your time. We wish you all happiness and success in every part of your lives. Everyone within these pages has tried to adhere to the earlier quote from Winston Churchill. Hopefully, everyone reading these pages will always continue to reach for their goals; and when those are achieved, then reach even further for more.
 
Group shots always provide memories when looking back. This one is MACBETH at Virginia Museum Theatre, Yes, that's me in the middle, wearing a doe-skin cape. Some of the soldiers are wearing football pads or suits. Hmmm. In RAGTIME, we're all wonderfully formal, at the White Plains Performing Arts Center.
This a partial group of "misfits" from CANDIDE, backstage at the New York City Opera, in 2008. See that guy in the back with a red wig and moustache? Look familiar?
