🎭PAPER GUN “This is mine, but you can have it.”.
An Original Song Cycle / Operetta, told in monologue and melody.
Three acts of twenty minutes each.
A paper theme tied to the shadow and Talmudic parallels about sacrifice, in which one man plays both sides of himself. Ending in independence and warmth. Taking no prisoners on the way..
🎭THE SONG IS THE PLAY / A therapeutic & theatrical performance
Acting out well-known lyrics like a scene from a play, and singing them with live looping piano (rhythms and harmonies recorded and stacked live). A sophisticated, intimate entertainment: Billy Joel, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Neil Diamond, Sinatra, and more.
“I think I’ve listened to that song a hundred times but that might be the first time I’ve actually heard it” (video testimonial)
🎭LIVE LOOPING
Rhythms and harmonies recorded and stacked live
Currently booking 2026/27
