<p>I am the Musical Director for the <strong><a href="http://www.starsandgarters.org/">Stars and Garters Theater Company</a></strong>, established in March of 2006 to produce an original play by <a href="http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&amp;friendid=90847034">Jenny Jo Kristan</a> and <a href="http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&amp;friendid=69630519">Ben Burke</a>, <strong>the Curse of the Goddamn Ship</strong>. The show was so well-received, we produced a second run in October that same year and took it on a tour of the northwestern US in July 2008.</p>
<p>Our biggest production so far was an adaptation of a Brothers Grimm story called <strong>the Robber Bridegroom</strong>. I composed and directed the performance of a score which was played live during the show, written for wurlitzer, guitar, bass, percussion, and violin. I also played the part of Finn, a shit-smeared cannibalistic robber. A soundtrack album is in the works and will be available soon.</p>
