KT Sullivan

So tonight, my accompanist for "Nerds Among Us," Jeff Cubeta and I were lucky enough to be guests at KT Sullivan's cabaret in the exquisite Oak Room of the famous Algonquin Hotel. WHAT A SHOW!!! Of course, we were the youngest people in the audience, but MAN! Can that woman sing! Her theme tonight was the music of Dietz and Schwartz, who were Golden Age composer/lyricists, but whether I was around during that generation or not, KT TRULY lets you appreciate them both. I am so glad to have met KT during my days with Cabaret Pittsburgh, along with many others (Elaine Stritch, Tom Wopat, Stephen Schwartz, etc.), but I couldn't be more happier with a better cabaret mentor. KT is at the TOP of the cabaret scene, and she clearly deserves it. And to simply dine in the Oak Room of the Algonquin Hotel....well....I felt like I was rich! Thank you, KT, for a marvolous evening. :)

A "Great" Man Moves On...

Today, the world lost a good man...my Uncle Arthur. I call him my uncle, but he was technically my "great" uncle. Nevertheless, I believe the term of "family" deals with a certain amount of love. I have some friends who I consider to be more like "family" than just good friends. And although most people don't know their "great" uncles or aunts or grandparents, my Uncle Arthur was more of a grandfather to me than an uncle. My father told me today that he knew me better than he did his own children, and that means a lot.


My brother had a mini golf competition going on with this man, and what I loved so much was that my Uncle Arthur was 80 years old, yet that never stopped him. He was so energetic, and he was everything I want to be when I turn 80 years old. I just admired him so much, and I already miss him so much...

I know he is in a better place--I have no doubt about that--I just hope I get to see him again some day...

...and play mini golf... :(

My FIRST cabaret show here in NYC, "Nerds Among Us," will take place on Monday, April 20th at the Duplex at 7pm. There is a $10 cover and 2 drink minimum, but Elaine Stritch might show up, so it'll be all worth it!

"Where Everybody Knows Your Name"

Sang this the other night at the Duplex. In case the first few chords don't give it away, it's the theme song from "Cheers." Video provided by the wonderful, Ashley Randele. THANKS, GIRL! :)

Instinct Magazine's "Parents of the Month"

Instinct Magazine's "Parents of the Month"

Be sure to check out the April issue of Instinct Magazine where my very own parents will be featured as their "Mom of the Month," or in this case, "Parents of the Month." I nominated my parents over the holidays, and they were selected for being so supportive of their two--yes, TWO--gay sons. I LOVE YOU, MOM AND DAD!!! :)

I've updated my website a lot recently, so check it out! I welcome any feedback.
