Living with Henry was a hit at last year's Toronto Fringe Festival, and is back on stage with the Next Stage Theatre Festival. Featuring some of Canada's best and brightest musical theatre performers, the show is a semi-autobiographical look at life with HIV/AIDS. The lead character is played by Ryan Kelly who was most recently seen in Studio 180's critically acclaimed production of The Normal Heart. He took a few minutes to talk with BWW about the show, and about his tendency to gravitate towards roles that deal with death, disease and the human spirit.
Featured as part of the Best of Fringe Uptown 2011, Living With Henry is a new musical drama that explores the fear, complications and realities of living with HIV/AIDS today. Though it is no longer a death sentence, the once carefree Michael must learn to come to terms with living with his chronic condition to gain a much deeper understanding of self and the complex world around him.

Renaissance man Phil Coulter has managed to write, produce or record chart-topping songs in every decade since the 1960s. Such iconic artists as Elvis Presley, Van Morrison and The Bay City Rollers have sung Coulter's impressive songbook. In addition, his atmospheric instrumental CDs, which Enya credits as an inspiration for her own best-sellers, have found the pianist a regular home on the charts. The consummate songsmith's most recent triumph has been his role as music director and composer for the hugely successful Celtic Thunder, which has enjoyed great success on PBS, enjoying several Gold selling albums and sold-out tours across the country and even an appearance at the White House. Celtic Thunder's devoted following range from teenyboppers to grandparents alike. Their current CD Heritage has surpassed Coulter's expectations. 'I was thrilled to see Heritage climb to number 11 in the Billboard Hot 200......up there with Pink and Lady Gaga!'
