2012 is turning into an amazing year. Himself and Nora, directed by Michael Bush, will lead off the NYMF Festival. The first performance is July 9th. Visit: www.NYMF.org for tickets.

40 Naked Women, A, Monkey & Me has just been selected to be the featured musical at the Eugene O’Neill Cabaret Festival August 10th for one night only. Special treat will be my 8 piece band with arrangements by Jim Hynes. Awesome! A great opportunity to see this one before we hit the Great White Way. It’s going to sell out!

In June, I’m overseeing Northwestern University’s Songwriting program on behalf of the Mercer Foundation with our fabulous mentor teachers: Craig Carnelia, Lari White, and Andrew Lippa.

In September, AMAS will be producing a full workshop of my next musical, MENU. On September 15th, we will once again be producing the annual gala for The Development Wing at our home in New Jersey. If you’re interested in attending this incredible event, email developmentwing@gmail.com.

On a tighter note, I had the chance to meet the incredible owner of Spanx, Sara Blakely and was commissioned to write two songs for their fabulous form fitting employees. Gotta love their Assets brand. I wrote the tag line for them: "A Girl Has Got The Right To Slip On Her Assets." Ask me to sing it when you see me!

Macy's commissioned me to write five pieces of music for their a national dance contest. This was absolutely fantastic! Everyone can vote for their favorite dancer when you go to Macy's on Facebook.
