Sad to say but I'm done with Les Miserables, at least for the time being. To be quite frank I feel the time is right to take a break, head off along the road and see what lies around the bend. It's been a wild year quite frankly; long stint as Javert, moonlighting as Raoul, barking at the National Guard for a couple of weeks and more besides. But all this good old-fashioned musical theatre makes me yearn for something else. So I doubt I'll be returning to the barricades or the opera mighty soon.
First priority is an album - my own material, offering something new to the ears of the world. I'm excited by the prospect of working with the producer/arranger who's agreed to record with me. The sixteen-year-old music nerd in me is in heaven, in fact. Once it's all definitely fixed (he's a busy man), I'll let on who it is. Hoping it'll be available for download before Christmas.
That seems like a long way away, so before then I hope to gig a little more in the run up to the album's release - mostly in London I expect (though a couple elsewhere too). And as for the rest, well I'm back to auditioning and the actor's perennial search for that dream job. I've had a couple this past year, so I hope my luck holds...
