10 min apart seperately, my parents quoted the 2 lines in the chorus. Bad recording on video cam.

13 years on stage, Globe theatre comedy award, understudy roles for Michael Barrymore as Pharaoh in 'Joseph' and The King for Ray Woolf in 'The King & I', various lead roles, recently completed a Roger Hall workshop in Stage Script writing.
I wrote and directed my own stage comedy called Running the Gauntlet which was put to stage and very successfully in 2008 here is a webpage showing the production: http://sites.google.com/site/southpacificart, recent show I was the voice as the Plant in Little shop of horrors.
A good stage presence, i have also used my acting experience and directed, Grease and The Boyfriend, both shows sell outs requiring extra performances.The last major production was Les Mis in 2010 in which i played various sub-lead roles, this being a personal pinnacle of all the acting i have been involved in, there is also another dimension required when portraying a particular character only to music.

I started Piano music lessons at about 7 years old and attain Grade 6 practical and Grade 5 theory. Also high marks in School Cert Music (76%) I also worked in Metro Music in Rotorua as their piano/keyboard salesman about 15 years ago. I have been actively always involved in youth group bands and church music teams on the piano or keyboard, and have also taught students at the local High School and privately.
I also play the guitar and have taught it, I play basic drumming and basic electric bass, I sing, check out my acting career on stage, have had the understudy lead roles for Michael Barrymore and Ray Woolf.
I can read music well, but don't sight read, I play by ear and can pick up new songs very quickly, I can transpose instantly eg. I detest playing the guitar in 'twangy' key of D, so always capo the second fret and play in C. or whatever key to whatever, makes no difference, on the piano/keyboard or guitar.
