Having a local theater critic in the family, I am able to attend many shows as his “plus-one.” Although I don’t attend many musicals or old Broadway standbys, I have seen some amazing dramatic and comedic work over the past four or five years, at both big and small venues. I’ve also attended a couple of the Craig Noel Theater Awards shows, what I call San Diego’s version of the Tony Awards, and I was able to get the freelance assignment of designing the 2013 program and this logo.
