Thanks for visiting! I am having a great time in rehearsal for Arsenic and Old Lace alongside my old friend and AMC co-star Walt Willey (“Jackson Montgomery”).

Walt is originally from Ottawa, IL and Arsenic and Old Lace marks his WilleyWorld Community Productions’ second annual effort in developing a self-sustaining theatre for the Ottawa community as well as a mentorship program for youths in the Ottawa area. I truly admire what he is doing for that community and his sincere love for the arts and theatre. He is really a great guy (but you all may have known that already!).

Performances are July 23 to 25 at the Ottawa High School auditorium (211 East Main Street, Ottawa, IL). Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 at the door; general admission. For performance information and for tickets call the Ottawa Visitors Center at 815-434-2737 or visit www.experienceottawa.com.

Here are a few snapshots below from our rehearsals I thought you’d enjoy seeing.
