Stephen has performed Mildred�s Umbrella four times now: he was seen singing and dancing as "Simmons" in our production of Mac Wellman�s Dracula; he also appeared as "the Director" in Things Being at the Worst and as "the Chief of the Railways" in Tomorrow Morning. With his recent portrayal of �Xavier Cassidy� in By the Bog of Cats, Stephen further enhanced his claim to the niche of, as fight choreographer Alan Hall put it, �a right bastard�. He has performed with our pals at dos chicas theater commune (Oedipus Rex, Largo Desolato, �for those who live in cities), with the Back Porch Players at Stages in Moonchildren, with Fan Factory (Ghosts and Squeeze Plays 2002 & 2004) and Slump, and in 2003�s only-one-of-its-kind summer musical comedy All That Jaws. Stephen grew up surrounded by immigrants in a French restaurant: he has been Cockney on stage with us; German, British, and Japanese for video games; and most recently that strangest of foreigners, the Upstate New Yorker. Stephen is a University-of-Houston-trained historian and geographer who knows entirely too much: don�t get him started.
