Sometimes I think that if all the world really is a stage … then whoever does the casting, needs to reconsider a few of their choices. The world can be a chaotic place and home to a few very scary humans … but there is also beauty and I still believe, a lot more good people than bad.<\/p>\n

Since I was a very young man, I have found many of my favourite people in the theatre. Whether on or off the stage, it has been something that helped to pull me to a place of safety and belonging when the world was more than I could handle. It’s been a source of laughter, tears, hope, fear, joy, education … family.<\/p>\n

This Photoblog\/Podcast is, in a large way a journal of sorts for me. A chance to celebrate, remember the past and dream of future journeys …one of those being a return to a stage at some point.<\/p>\n

I don’t have pictures of everyone who has played a role in my “theatrical” life, but I have a few I’d like to share with you as I (we) celebrate World Theatre Day (March 27th).<\/p>\n

The carousel below, features a few images from my private collection and are some of the more heartwarming memories I’ve had on local stages. I’m grateful to have a mom who liked to save newspaper clippings!<\/p>\n

Please skip right past them to the podcast link below if you like … or feel free to browse … and thank you for indulging me.<\/p>\n
