Les Miserables in 1987. Blown away. Also blown away by my mullet and shiny grey suit.
"Curtain Up" - Your Broadway debut, tell us the "when, where and how."
RENT...1998...replaced Jim Poulos (as squeegee man)...right place, right time.
Please tell us about your favorite New York City street, and why you think it is special.
8th Avenue between 53 and 41st because I get to see friends in passing I wouldn't see otherwise.
What's your favorite New York City restaurant?
The lady and I love Dos Caminos. Great tequila menu and the food is devastatingly good.
What's your preferred "pre-show" and "post-show" meal?
Depends on the show, but a protein shake with two shots of espresso usually does the trick. Post show....Wings!
"The Subway" - What is your "line" and in what other ways do you get around the city?
Now that I live in "upstate" Manhattan, its all about the A-train. Other than that its shoe leather, I love to walk.
Clue us in about your best "Broadway bargain" and where we can find it!
