Thank you to @therealteamstarkid for bringing accessibility to their work for Theatre Dorks all over the world. I’ve met and worked with the most amazing artists through Starkid and I can’t say enough wonderful things about this company 🙏🏻

This fandom is ELECTRIC! Trying to explain “a Starkid audience” to a fellow actor is impossible. Thank you all for being so supportive, kind, loud, and collaborative!!! Let’s keep making wonderful shows together 💙

Year 3/3 Years ❤️💍

#internationalcouple #gratitude #anniversary #love #livingthedream

Madly in love but never together. Spent more days apart this year but she’s always my HOME. If you see me being too silly or reading furiously or working too hard it’s because I’m missing half my heart….BUT they’ll be a time to sit and do nothing. For now we do exactly what we always dreamed of doing 🙏🏻 even if it means being apart for a bit ❤️ Happy Anniversary 😍🎈👑

1. candid opening “you did it!” Kiss

EVERYBODY CALM DOWN…..😈

#starkid #tgwdlm #albumreleaseday #castalbum2

May or may not have cried in the shower listening to this 😂 Missing my Starkid friends extra today 🥺

The hardest part of Theatre is saying goodbye to the show once it’s over. Thank you @therealteamstarkid for keeping the magic alive long after the sets are torn down ❤️ Big THANK YOU to @jeffblim4ever and @mattdahanmusic your work is amazing 😈

I’m really really bummed I won’t make it to London but thank you to the best fandom that make it all possible ❤️

4. Little Shop again
5. Come From Away Opening Bow
6. THE SET…..and Chad and @riannyvasquez and precious laughter #tgwdlm

It’s been a full year (mostly) away from NYC with 4 different Casts and Companies. It’s been a wonderful playground and I’ve gotten to share the stage with actors doing some of the best work I’ve witnessed. Beyond grateful to ALL the artists I’ve gotten to work with 🙏🏻

PLEASE go to see regional shows. It’s a vital part of our theatre ecosystem. If there is a theatre in your town please support, donate, and GO! Theatre is the coolest and it’s only going to get cooler in this new AI age. I owe it everything (literally saved my life) and if I’m not acting you best believe I’m directing, writing, producing, and GOING for LIFE 🎭 I really love this stuff…..Okay byyyyeeeeee ❤️🙏🏻💩 taken in Memory Lane by @lordbranner
