Black Box Theater at McHenry Community College , Crystal Lake, IL – 2018
Husband, father, Charlie Aiken. This was the only time I was truly worried about a role. Not because of my performance, but because the cast was so strong in such a heavy play. I didn’t want to let them down. In the end, I’m sure I didn’t. I learned a lot from this experience.
