A professional full-time singer and actor, the "business" has had him traveling and performing all over the east coast the past several years. Shawn is thrilled to make his New England return with this show, and to do it where he started performing so long ago, makes it even better. Shawn ran into Tony in NYC this summer where he was first introduced to Boomers. Six months later, he is thrilled to be a part of this incredible project. Shawn has most recently been seen with the North Carolina Theatre, StageWorks Productions, The Barn Dinner Theatre, and the Charlotte Repertory Company. Other recent professional credits include: Michael in Smokey Joe's Cafe, Sparky in Forever Plaid, and Jack in Into the Woods. Shawn attended Shenandoah Conservatory (Virginia) and holds a bachelor's degree from Belmont University in Nashville, TN. While there, he sang with such names as Crystal Gayle, Jo Dee Messina, Vince Gill, and 'backed-up' Kenny Rogers at the Grand Ole Opry. Shawn was also just named "Country Entertainer of the Year" in NH. After the curtains close on Boomers, he'll be flying down to Tennessee to compete for the national title. Special thanks to Tony and Peter for all of their hard work and for letting him be a part of this great work. 2005.04.01
