Matt, my very best wishes go with you. In addition to the esteemed cast above, you’ll be working with the talented and funny Kristine Zbornik. Can’t wait to see what Harvey has done with the Paddy Chayevsky play and Gore Vidal movie starring Bette Davis.
Now, if someone decides to remake “Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?” as a musical, I just can’t picture you in the Victor Buono role…(hmmmmm……)

Matt you are such a great talent and also such a nice person. You are moving onward and upward which is great for you. You will be sorely missed by all the fans and I’m sure the crew. But all our good wishes go with you in all of your future endeavors.
