David M Raine began studying Straight and Musical Theater at New Freedom Theater by 13. He went on to study in NY at The American Musical and Dramatic Academy (AMDA) right out of High School. His focus and hard work earned him the role of BERGER in the Broadway Musical "Hair", making him the first man of color to Lead the show across Europe. Upon his return to the States, David had great success in television, and commercial/fashion modeling. This gave him a lot of time to develop his songwriting and band performance skills through concerts in the States and overseas/Middle East. When in NY, he still kept a foot theater stages when starring in the US Musical Tour of "If This Hat Could Talk" with Melba Moore, Stephanie Mills, directed by George Faison. He played Leon Becker in Stanley Bennet Clay's straight drama, "Ritual" for it's Off Broadway run. Since then, David has focused mostly on his film/tv career and songwriting for indie films.

Bi Jean Ngo is totally excited to participate in this Quarantine Couples Cabaret with 11th Hour Theatre Company.
