Originally
from Glasgow, Scotland, Stephen emigrated to Buffalo, New York
and had his first taste of theater as a young boy in Life With Father.
He
later found work as a rock singer in various local bands. Combining
rock and
theater was a natural progression and Stephen has found ample
opportunity in
such roles as Judas and later Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar, in the
rock
opera Tommy, and in an original rock opera by Neal Radice and Ken
Kaufman
based on the Old English epic Beowulf. Stephen also recorded vocal
tracks
for many jingles before moving to Philadelphia. He has performed with
the
Philadelphia Revels, as Strephon in the Savoy Company's 100th
anniversary
production of Iolanthe. He has performed in two of our Society's
previous
productions: as Sparkeion in Thespis and as Hilarion in Princess Ida.
Stephen is currently studying voice with Richard
Johnson of Bryn Mawr and singing
with the Main Line Opera Guild. He will also be appearing as Alfred in
Rose
Valley's April 2003 production of Die Fledermaus.
