Michael Tower and I formed Tower Morris Productions to make films of all sizes, shapes, and forms. We have completed One Can Burn and are now working on The Lonely Detective.

Our Town by Thorton Wilder, Directed by Sean Murray. A great director and a great cast.

The Lonely Detective is 52% shot. We hope to call the cast and crew back together in December 2011 to reshoot some scenes and to complete the balance. A higher level of key management professions is being added, and fundraising will soon begin for the post production work. Sadly two wonderful people from this production passed away and completing this version is impossible. We miss Glynn Bedington and Federico Moramarco very much.

* With the help of (then wife) Kim Bieda and Judy Montague I bought the lease on what was Quinten Crisp theatre in early 2001. It became obvious quickly * with only 49 seats * that it couldn't be run as a standard business and Kim Bieda wrote the 501(c)(3) non-profit application and we were approved a short time later. San Diego Theatre Scene, Inc. is the non-profit umbrella under which Compass Theatre operates. We've had our ups and downs * wonderful successes and crushing failures. That's show biz I guess.

Promoting the arts in San Diego

An actor since 1974. I earned my SAG card in 1994 and my AEA card in 2002.

In rehearsals for KVETCH by Steven Berkoff. It runs Sept. 17 thru Oct. 16, 2011.

Excited to be cast in His Girl Friday directed by Christopher Ashley. I will play one of the reporters. Rehearsals begin in late April. The show runs in June.

I was honored to work for director Sam Woodhouse and play the role of Mr Daltry and to be amidst such a wonderful cast.

Most recent Production: North Coast Repertory Theatre Nov 12 & 13, 2012. With a license from the Fields Family, I'm working on touring a show based on the later years of W.C. Fields. As of 10/1/12 we just completed a successful four-week run at the 10th Avenue Theatre in San Diego. While reviewers and critics felt the play dark, audiences left the theatre very moved by the experience of seeing and learning about a man who was more than just a one-liner. It was a rewarding experience. Now it's on to North Coast Rep for a short November run - then hopefully Mesa, AZ and then Los Angeles.

Favorite times here were during the production of Babes in Arms.
