Rise of AesterRise of Aester Steampunk LARP (Summer 2009)
"In 1862, the world we had known came to its end. Rising sea levels engulfed entire coastlines; navigation foundered as compasses spun uselessly with the shifting of the magnetic poles and the Ęster blocked out sun and stars. Millions died in the floods. Millions more succumbed to starvation and disease as they fled the darkness encroaching from the poles. Eighty years ago, the Ęster swallowed our world."

This is a brand-new live-action roleplaying setting in the early stages of development. So far I've been tapped to do the upcoming webcomic (with the able connivance of veteran comics illustrator Anthony Hicks) and other miscellaneous flavor material -- we will see what else lies down the road. Who will you be after the Rise of Aester?
 
 
 
Village TheatreVillage Theatre's 2009-10 Season Announced!
Another fall is swiftly bearing down on us, and with it a yummily varied bonbon assortment of offerings at Village Theatre. Naturally the ones you're most interested in are the ones I'm playing concertmaster/solo violin for! And those would be Chasing Nicolette, a new musical about the (they promise!) hilarious complications that ensue when a medieval Christian count falls in love with a Muslim princess -- from the same creative team that brought us Stunt Girl last season; and Meet Me in St. Louis, best known for the "Trolley Song," "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," and of course the title tune.

Read more about the upcoming season at the Village Theatre webpage.
 
 
 
Comic-ConSan Diego Comic-Con, July 23-27, 2008
I will be attending my very first San Diego Comic-Con this year. I'm always eager to meet fellow creative folk, so if you catch me there, feel free to say hello! In particular, I'm looking for artists open to collaborating on comics, manga or graphic novel projects. But I would also be delighted to hear from fellow writers, or publishers who may be seeking someone for freelance writing/editing. Drop me an email and we can arrange to meet as leisure permits.


More information on the con can be found at the Comic-Con official website

 

 
Village TheatreVillage Theatre -- Beauty and the Beast, November 2008
 In addition to my work with the Tacoma Symphony, I will be joining the Village Theater pit orchestra once again this fall as concertmaster for their production of Disney's Beauty and the Beast. It's much too early to speak for this specific show of course, but Village always boasts some of the finest casts in the nation and I can feel pretty confident in guaranteering a good time! I will also be playing in their production of Show Boat (swoon) later in the 2008-2009 season.

More information on the production can be found at the Village Theater website.
