J's latest show

J has been cast in Les Miserables in Payson, so it's been an interesting month.

Originally he auditioned for Thenardier, that is the one roll he would love to play in show, but didn't get cast as it. He did get cast as core ensemble and ended up getting a few other "featured" roles. He seems to be enjoying the experience since he hasn't done this show before--and now that it is back on Broadway there is the possibility that they won't have it available for theatres to do anymore. I haven't seen it yet (should see it some time this week) but from the pictures and what I've heard, they are doing a good job.

J is center back in the blue vest. We had to search high and low for those grey pants in the correct style. It drives me nuts when pants are just overlooked and they end up being the wrong style for the timeframe. His aren't. )

J as the Pimp during Lovely Ladies. He told me about this character but I didn't know what he looked like until now.

This is one of the creepiest roles I think he's done so far. Just take a look at how slimy he looks in this photo. That is my raven cane he's using, but this picture just creeps me out. When I asked him where in the song is this, he proceeded to act out the part for me. . .using me as the other lady. Yeah, creepy!!

He comes home from the show so late that he spends the week exhausted. Luckily it is a very short run (one week) so his schedule should get back to normal soon; then it's off to his next adventure. . . 2 obstacle courses in 1 weekend in October.
