This is a recently found camcorder recording of the show in its early stage of an eight month Australian tour. I turned the part down 3 times before I was convinced to take it. It turned out to be one of the best times of my life until 4 months in, the police contacted me letting me know my mother, back in NY, (Who had cancer but gave me the impression she was beating it.) wouldn't make Christmas. I flew home and was there for two months burying my mother amongst other things before returning to Oz to complete the last two months of the tour. This video even though rough as it is was a thrill for me who never saw myself from a front view as video was a very stern NO NO! A lot of memories with some wonderful talented people and a trunk full of funny stories. At least the bits I could retain. Enjoy.

Thoughts that went through my head as I was watching my wife dying.

This piece is about changing the law so adoptee's can find out who their biological parents are. The words were written by Martha Shideler who sent them to me and said do something. Adoptee's call Martha an angel, which is someone who helps them on their search. Through DNA, I recently discovered a son and daughter who I never knew existed. They were adopted out.
