  This is a montage of the few hours I come home to eat and hang out with @oliveontapenadetheworld . She then stepped on my face while running to the window to look at a squirrel right after. #lovestory . . . . . #chicago #chi #rescuedog #hounddog #chicagodogs #chicagodog #faces #nuzzel #buddies @chicagocaninerescue

  I’m gonna miss being here, with these people, in this thing. Last show. One more for the road. I hope I get to work with these people again. I hope I’m in this generous house again. #gearup #wheelsup . . . . #theadventuresofaugiemarch #augiemarch @courttheatre #audianceappreciation #love #vibes #theatre #theatreinchicago #actor #actors #actorslife #closingday #closing #getit #onemorefortheroad #leaveitonthestage #feels

  Nobody can embody and take over what @luigisottile21 does, but starting last night I’ve stepped into the large shoes left. One day I hope I get a chance to be on the stage with him. Good guy.

  -Not even gonna lie, kinda had a mental freak out in my mind yesterday. A LOT of things going on all at the same time in every area of the living thing. Pretty sure I held it together better than it showed. It’s funny, cause today... I met with contractors, did 30 pages of emails, went 5 places, had a bunch of phone/text communication. Now I am on my porch, going over lines for a show... and am calm and KNOW I have this shit. All this shit. Yesterday, nope. Today, I’m saying bring it on. -We can handle more than we know. We have tremendous capacity. For all things. I don’t know when that thing kicks in, and honestly I could have used today’s “collected kickass”, like a week ago, but I’m glad I found it. If you’re in that crazy: breathe, receive, and stand up. Get off the mat. Kick. The. Things. Ass. . . . . #life #live #vibes #goodvibes #crushingthegame #getit #chill #chicago #play #theatre #actor #actorslife #living #chicagotheatre #personintheworld

  Yea, there are a lot of great things happening right now. Yes I look tired because I’m hustling hard. BUT, the reason I am happy today has nothing to do with me. On my way to the theatre I stop by a specific gas station. The last time I was there a security guard was talking to a regular about his grandson getting into college. Today when I saw him I walked over and shook his hand and congratulated him. He was beaming while he told me his grandson got a full ride to Harvard and wants to become a lawyer to help people. He could have gone on a basketball scholarship anywhere, but he went on an academic. It’s always great to see someone so happy and proud, but it reminds me how lucky we are to have people who take joy in our joy and accomplishments. I never want to take them for granted. Love to you all!!! . . . . #chicago #love #vibes #goodvibes #chill #heart #actor #actors #actorslife #story

  I’m sure there’s a ton of reasons why @courttheatre being located on the @universityofchicago campus is awesome. This one is my favorite though. . . . . . #actor #actors #actorslife #chicago #theatre #theatreinchicago #morning #lines #rehearsalday #augiemarch #theadventuresofaugiemarch #vibes #chill #love

  BIG NEWS: The 13th-23rd I will be taking over the role of Simon in the world premiere of The Adventures Of Augie March by David Auburn at Court Theatre for the extension of the incredibly successful run. NOBODY can replace the incomparable @luigisottile21 , but to get an opportunity to play with some of my favorite actors on stage is so exciting!! Thank you @courttheatre for the opportunity. After this next week, I’m in. Get me off the bench coach! . . . . . #theatre #actor #actors #actorslife #chicago #theadventuresofaugiemarch #chicagoland #takeover #love #vibes #crazy #chicagothatsombercity #freestyle #notsoinnocent #knock #crazylife #accousticalwork

  The play I’m involved with had a piece written about it by the @nytimes ! Often, in the theatre world, we loose sight of the things we are thankful for in the rush to get to the product and deal with all the day to day things that arise. I can honestly say, being in the room with this group of people trying to bring this project to life has been a gift. Real pros doing the thing, and I’m glad to know them. Check out their work and this world premiere production @courttheatre is putting together! #fire . . . . . #actorslife #actors #understudy #thunderstudy #wonderstudy #chicagoland #chicago #love #worldpremiere #theadventuresofaugiemarch #theatre #theater #chicagotheatre #stage #saulbellow #vibes

  I realized today I have a bunch of unused headshots from the past and was looking through them. I have decided to title this “I’m serious about my beard... growing down my neck”. I think this captures that. . Photo cred: @brian_mcconkey_photography . . . #actorslife #chicagotheatre #vibes #theatreinchicago #actor #actors #chicago #chicagoland #beard #neard #love #eyeproblems

  My pre-audition ritual involves getting coffee and finding my light.
