Directing URINETOWN at VCU

Along with my duties teaching 'Movement for the Actor' and 'Musical Theatre Performance' this year at VCU, I am also directing the spring musical URINETOWN. My concept is that our production will be a live action graphic novel (a choice to go against the usual "brechtian" approach).

Our show features musical direction by Ben Miller and choreography by Brianna Larson. The cast is made up of a large group of talented undergraduates (many of whom are students of mine) and led by VCU MFA Student and Equity Actor Matt Ferrell (star of the International Tour of The Rocky Horror Show) as Officer Lockstock.

The production opens April 15th at VCU's Hodges Theatre and runs through May 1st. For more information please visit http://arts.vcu.edu/theatre/
