I've been in a lot, but I'll just name my favourite. PARADE! We did it at French Woods Festival for the Performing Arts(where JRB went) and I was Jim Conley. It was incredible!

Best moment of the summer, getting to work one on one with Jason Robert Brown, and after that, him conducting Old Red Hills of Home with the entire company singing! AMAZING!

Having danced in many Broadway shows (always in the corps) I can say that the highlights were:
On Your Toes Babes In Arms I Married An Angel Boys From Syracuse
All with the great Richard Rodgers, Lorenz Hart and George Balanchine. I worked with many other famous names during my career, but these men were by far the most gifted and talented people I ever encountered during my time dancing on Broadway.

Every movement has a meaning--but what the hell does it mean!
Mister Matt- I would also like to be in Naked Boys Singing.
