His current projects include: "The Retail Song Cycle," a brand new, full-length musical that uses a true story, verbatim customer interactions, and true to life characters to explore how people treat one another and what happens when a person gets caught in the middle. "Jerry's Riot," the tale of a man who brought a Montana prison town to its knees in 1959. Based on the remarkable true story, this musical explores the mind of a sociopath and the lives he changes. "The Antecedent Event" a quirky exploration of the human condition before we can remember.
