1776 1989

In November of 1989 I did a show with Decatur's local community theatre group called Theatre 7. They were doing 1776, and I was cast as Edward Rutledge, the delegate from South Carolina, who sings an awesome song, "Molasses to Rum to Slaves," and attempts to point out the hypocrisy of the Northern delegates that were involved in the shipping trade that also included slavery.

After perusing a few other photo albums I found an additional shot in color from this show which shows the bright orange costume I had. The gentleman in the tux and jeans is my friend Jim Collins. Not sure why he was wearing jeans.
