03-10-12 – Chicago, IL>Milwaukee, WI – We are looking for a guitarist to play rhythm…as the music is Weill-esque, there’s a simple but all-important circus bounce which must be maintained for this musical style (think Wayne Newton’s “Danke Schoen” or the Beatles’ “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer”).
We’ve yet to create fully-produced records or music videos together…however, here are links to a couple of video shorts which give some sense of what we’re up to…they’re musical sequences from indie movies I’ve directed:
As this band is theatrically oriented, I direct it like theatre…and although I’ll want to showcase the particular strengths of the musicians I work with, I should note that I’m not looking for song-writing collaborators…I have too much material of my own which I’m eager to unpack. That said, it’s ensemble-driven in presentation, allowing the opportunity for the performers to be as wild or as subdued onstage as they always wanted to be when dreaming of show-biz, as children.
If interested, please write me at and we’ll talk!

02-25-12 – Chicago, IL>Milwaukee, WI – We are looking for a drummer to help complete the lineup. Jazz experience would be good, as the material doesn’t linger too long on rock, and requires a quieter touch and steady tempo.

01-06-12 – Dallas, TX>Oklahoma City, OK – “The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940″ is a hilarious spoof of the entire murder mystery genre and enjoyed a long and critically hailed run both on and Off-Broadway. Poking antic fun at the more ridiculous aspects of “show biz” and the corny thrillers of Hollywood’s heyday, the play is a non-stop barrage of laughter as those assembled (or at least those who aren’t killed off) untangle the mystery of the “Stage Door Slasher.” You’ll have an evening that will keep an audience guessing as well as laughing. — Submit Yourself To This Role Now: Live Event

12-24-11 – Chicago, IL>Milwaukee, WI – We are looking for singers who have either experience or strong interest in theatre…the performances are highly stylized and usually choreographed. I’m looking specifically for singers who’ve had experience with different parts and harmonic lines, either in choral groups or musicals. I’ve met a lot of singers who have lovely voices, but have difficulty not slipping into other people’s vocal parts.

11-28-11 – Chicago, IL>Milwaukee, WI – CANDY TOWN is a whitefaced, bowler-hatted musical group, playing original material which draws stylistically from Kurt Weill, Tom Waits and the Beatles…the presentation very theatrical, with elements of vaudeville and burlesque. We’ve been together for about a year, playing at Martyrs, Reggie’s, the University Club, the Beat Kitchen, the Everleigh Club, the Hungry Brain, the Ace Bar and the Viaduct Theater.
