His sister, whom I did not know, was a member of the William and Mary Orchestra. When I sent out a plea to the orchestra for violinists/violists/cellists, she apparently sent it to him just in case. He sent me an e-mail asking me if I needed (on the off-chance) a classical guitarist for the pit orchestra, and so I e-mailed him back asking if he (on the off-chance) also sang and acted. As it turns out, he does. And does quite well at all three. We'll have to work some on getting his voice to sound more minstrel-y (it's just a bit too well trained to sound authentic), but that's something I'm more than happy to work on.
This, in addition to our crew and pit that are shaping up, makes me much more relaxed and very happy. The only things missing right now are a violist and a cellist. If anyone knows of any, shoot me a line. I have roughly 20 days to find them both. Not too bad.
In other news, the website is almost up. Now, don't go about forwarding this address to lots of people until there is clear and useful information everywhere, but I'd love your opinions on the layout of the site in general- www.usherthemusical.com
