No stranger to the musical theater world, cast in the role of Jacob in La Cage Aux Folles winning him a Robbie Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Musical. But it was my move to Switzerland that became his greatest journey in musical theater playing the role of Annas in the rock opera, Jesus Christ Superstar, Hairspray, and the role of Daddy Brubeck in the production of Sweet Charity.
