Well, here it is... I've joined the MYSPACE world. I have been resisting it all this time since I just know it's a TIME TRAP, but once I saw how many of my favorite people were out there, I've decided to jump in... Since many of you are long lost friends, let me update you on what's been happening in the wonderful world of BEK.
THE PAST:
- I graduated from the UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN in 2002, with a BFA in Theatre Directing Concentration.
- I moved from Ann Arbor to Hartford, CT, where I spent a year babysitting actors as the Company Manager.
- Moved down to NYC, and started working at a talent agency while I looked for work as a director or actor. It came along in the grand form of getting in on the ground floor of a brand new Broadway musical, DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS.
- I worked as the Associate Director on THE COAST OF UTOPIA at Lincoln Center Theatre, a triology of plays by Tom Stoppard. The show is EPIC, three plays, rehearsed and performed from Sept to March, and with 42 actors, many of whom you all know (Ethan Hawke, Billy Crudup, etc.)... it was another amazing experience and opportunity. AND we just won 7 Tonys including Best Play & Best Director. 7 Awards for UTOPIA is the most ever for a non-musical. Truly a monumental feat!
- I Directed NOTES TO MARIANNE at the O'Neill Center in Waterford, CT in July. It's a fantastic new musical by Dan Lipton and David Rossmer.
- I'm Assistant Director on HAIRSPRAY in London on the West End.
- I Directed HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS in San Diego, CA at the Old Globe at the end of the year.
THE PRESENT:
- I live in New York City... Queens actually. Woodside to be specific. I love my hood. I've been here for almost four years.
- I have many different future productions in the works
ENOUGH "ABOUT ME" I suppose. If any of you are coming to NYC, make sure to contact me. I'd love to see you...
