All My Sons is going well every night and I’ve gotten some nice feedback, but last night? Well, I got a lovely compliment from audience member David Hartman, former host of Good Morning, America! I was gabberflasted.

My next stage appearance is in the great Arthur Miller play All My Sons. I play Dr. Jim Bayliss. I’m enjoying the rehearsal process, working with and meeting new people, and also working with my friend Lauren.

There are only 10 days till opening night!

The beginning of my next stage project

I had my first rehearsal today to play the role of Dr. Jim Bayliss in a production of All My Sons, the great Arthur Miller play. More info will be forthcoming, naturally, but since today was my first rehearsal and since I speak first in the play, I thought I’d type up a snippet from the top of the play, including the last bit of prefatory stage directions into the first lines of dialog:

DOCTOR BAYLISS is nearing forty. A wry, self-controlled man, an easy talker, but with a wisp of sadness that clings even to his self-effacing humor.
AT CURTAIN, JIM is standing at L., staring at the broken tree. He taps his pipe on it, blows through the pipe, feels in his pockets for tobacco, then speaks.

JIM. Where’s your tobacco?
KELLER. I think I left it on the table.

I may wear a bow-tie. Stay tuned!
