Kris has had a very busy summer, performing in Gruppo Rubato's So, You've Decided To Be Evil at the Ottawa Fringe Festival, channeling Balzac (and others) in the NAC's On The Verge reading of The Ventriloquist, and performing regularly at The iNSTiTUTiON, Ottawa's only professional improv club. Other recent credits include The Zoo Story (New World Theatre - Jerry) and a brief stint as an undercover agent in the local independent film, Reawakening (Nil Six Pictures). Kris is also regularly seen on stage with Orpheus Musical Theatre Society (most recently as J. Pierrepont Finch in How To Succeed In Business Witthout Really Trying), and occasionally moonlights at Ottawa Little Theatre, where his work in Talking Carrots At The End of Act One garnered him the Peterborough Theatre Guild Award last November. In order to ensure he gets no sleep whatsoever, Kris also operates one the Internet's most popular Broadway-themed radio stations: www.modernbroadway.com. Kris is thankful for Troy's unending love and support, without which none of this would have been possible.
