WWC Theatre Alumni Blog

Rik has inspired me to post an update instead of just a picture (no that isn't my dog it's me). We moved from Taylorsville to Orem about 3 years ago so Liz could be closer to UVSC where she teaches and Novell where I'm going on 6 years. Carter turned five earlier this month and Madelyn was born on the 4th of July last summer. She was due on August 1st which my first day of residency for the Executive MBA at BYU. Suffice it to say her early arrival made things a little easier in that regard and she'll get fireworks every year for her birthday.

I was in The Scarlet Pimpernel in Salt Lake in 2002 and 2004 but I've had to abstain from the stage because of the time commitment involved. I did however get the chance to be an Israelite Soldier in the Liken the Scriptures DVD of David and Goliath with Thurl Baily. A couple weeks ago I was one of the Kings Gaurds in the Story of Esther (March 6 release date on dvd) Movies require a lot less time and I feel like I'm still involved. Carrie Steven's youngest son was in the movie as well. The last time I saw him I was Freddy in My Fair Lady and he was about 5. Carrie came by the set and we caught up for a minute, I've kept in touch with her off and on over the years and she has her own acting school in Ogden now. She Mrs Pierce in My Fair Lady and Buddy's mom in The Diviners and Barbara Allen's mom in Dark of the Moon. Those are the shows I had in common with her anyway.

I miss Western and the old gang. I can't believe I've been here this long and haven't talked to Rik. The last time I saw him was when I helped him move down for school.

Here's my number if anyone wants to get in touch 801-319-5986
