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.
