It's a very creative position affording the chance to learn and create new and exciting content for the web. An interesting note: my first day was June 27th of this year,my 30th birthday.

My Musical Improv Bio


Slightly Scripted:

Me as a gay lounge singer
I entered singing "Bootylicious," did a "Gloriah" medley using the Handel and Laura Brannigan versions and sang "So Long, Farewell" from "The Sound of Music" as a dirty slow grind. Royal Caribbean


Scenes:

Me as "El Capitan," a swarthy stud
Filmed at a final callback in NYC for a job with Krooze Komics, a company who works for Royal Caribbean putting improv comics on ships. They gave me the character name and my objective (woo the hag) and then we did the scene. I got the job.

Longform Scenes

Musical Improv Bio What I've done and where
Lou's Lounge

This was a 30-minute improvsed scene in a SAK improvathon. I think we did this at midnight. I was a gay cook who was in love with Lou, a surly nightclub owner and my boss. He was not gay, but he had feelings for me. In the fatherly sense. Not the dirty fatherly sense. But I wanted them to be dirty and fatherly. . (filmed at SAK, 2001)

Noun

I was in NYC and found a friendly piano player who played for Improv Asylum. I have always wanted to do a one-man musical improv show. We met once and I filmed the rehearsal. The idea was abandoned. The video quality is poor as the lights were not truned on in the space. (The board was locked) (filmed before an Impro Asylum show at the Lugh Factory, 2004)
Monologue: "Easter"
Song: "Pretty"
Rehearsals for Improv Asylum

I brought my video camera to rehearsals and here's what I got.
