FIRST BROADWAY SHOW EVER SEEN

The original 42nd Street in 1988. I remember telling my parents during intermission that “I am going to be in this show when I grow up.” Just over ten years later I was in the Broadway revival!

National Tour credits include 42nd Street and My Fair Lady directed by Trevor Nunn and choreographed by Matthew Bourne. Regional credits include Cosmo Brown in Singin’ In The Rain (Gateway Playhouse), Mike in A Chorus Line (Weston Playhouse), Slats in Good News! and How To Succeed…(Goodspeed Opera House) and George in The Drowsy Chaperone at The Cape Playhouse. John stars in the Web Series, ‘Who Could Ask For Anything More’, which pays tribute to MGM movie musicals and silent films (www.WCAFAM.com).
