Last night was the annual amfAR gala in NYC. Great and rousing speeches were made by President Clinton and his daughter Chelsea, Rose O'Donnell, Elton John and Diane Von Furstenberg to name but a few. A good time was had by all

Is this any way for a 46 year old man to be spending a Monday evening? Apparently the answer is yes, in my case. This is me performing a Don't Ask, Don't Tell themed version of Don't Tell Mama from Cabaret as part of the fundraiser Broadway Backwards at the Longacre Theatre. It raised $281,243 for BC/EFA and the LGBT Center. So hooray for that.
Tonight is the annual NYC AmFAR gala, at which President CLinton and Liz Taylor, amongst others, are being honored. Here is a sneak peek at what I am wearing. I'm going for a tweedy dandy look. It's designed by the very nice Jay Kos...

I am actually allergic to cats but I quite like them. And I really like feral ones. I think they are cats to the max. So please try and support this event.....
I did a photo shoot today with the lovely Krys Fox. Here is a snap I took when I was in one of my looks. Move over Gaga is what I say. Krys is having an exhibition in Brooklyn starting next Thursday 10th Feb. Check it out, cats.
Where is the ice cream?
I shot a little scene for PBS' The Electric Company and here it is.
Please chant that JFK does not stay closed much longer and I can get out of this hotel room at Heathrow....

I will be in London on Sunday to singsome of Lance Horne's songs in the concert to celebrate the release of his album First Things Last. It's at the Garrick theatre right slap bang in the middle of the West End. You can buy tickets here
Also, I found this today, a little film about the making of Sweet Land, which I was in and produced several years ago.
Warm up!!
If any young actors are reading this, I hope they will watch this video and understand once and for all the importance of a proper warm up before performing. Thank you.

Here is a website for a film I was in, written and directed by my friend Sam Neave. It has just gone up and stuff will be added to it from now on. I think it looks great.
Today I visited the Lower East Side Troll Museum. That's right. I met the lovely Reverend Jen and her chihuahua, The Reverend Jen junior, and we shot a segment for the Itsasickness TV show. It was a hoot. You can call to make an appointment to visit at 212-560-7235. It is really worth it, and as it is housed in a tiny sixth floor walk up apartment, you will also get buns of steel.
Here's a virtual tour...
