| After performing in several "cold" staged readings with the Instant Shakespeare Company, I was cast in a full production of The Tempest again, this time playing Ferdinand, the ship-wrecked prince. You can watch some clips from this 2011 show here: the girl singing at the beginning is Chrissy Sheehan, who went on to found the What Dreams May Co. (a Shakespeare group) with some other actors I know. Scroll down to read one of our several mentions in the New York Times.
