Participated in the Carthage Opera Workshop's performance of "The Marriage of Figaro"
"The Marriage of Figaro" is one of the great comic masterworks by Mozart, based on a revolutionary play by Beaumarchais that upended many of the stereotypes of the day by portraying servants as both intellectually and morally superior to their masters. The music is brilliant and the comedy remains fresh even 230 years after the opera was written. The Carthage Opera Workshop performed an abridged version of the work.

Participated in Carthage Theatre's "Urinetown"
Winner of three Tony Awards, Urinetown is a hilarious musical send-up of capitalism, social irresponsibility, bureaucracy, and musical theatre itself! In a dystopian future, a 20-year drought has led to a ban on private toilets. Citizens must use public toilets regulated by an evil company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity's most basic needs. From within the oppressed masses, a hero plans a revolution that could lead them all to freedom!
