Welcome to my Media page! We're still in the process of adding content, so please check back regularly for updates. A review of the Nickel City Opera production of Verdi's Rigoletto that I directed in June 2010 is posted below, and video will be posted as soon as it becomes available.

My recent activities include directing the critically acclaimed Nickel City Opera début production of Rossini's The Barber of Seville in June 2009 with a highly regarded international cast. Listed below are links to clips available on Youtube.com, and to the Buffalo News review:
