I was lucky enough to work with Lawrence at Lunchbox Theatre and at Theatre Calgary, where he played the Piano Master in AMADEUS. A very talented and funny man.

Thanks for the memories and the excellent learning experience with Bye Bye Birdie and Guys and Dolls. I'm sure I speak for everyone you helped at the St. Leo's (Mimico) Showtimers.
