I wasn’t going to go to my 30th high school reunion. High School was a confusing, painful, awkward time for me. FAG was written on my locker more than once. But it wasn’t all miserable. Over the years I’ve conflated the experience in my mind. For there were also incredible, core memory moments. I realized during high school with the help of my music teacher Mark Caldwell that I wanted to be an artist. I realized through the mentorship of my track coach Pat Stahl that I had tremendous athletic potential, which was a shock to me. I made a best friend, Chuck Green, who is the one who convinced me four months ago to go and be open to this experience. I’m so glad I did. I reconnected with and looked into faces I hadn’t seen in 30 years. We shared our struggles, our stories of losing parents. We walked the hallways of our tiny school and shared funny memories and anecdotes and I felt part of a community. It’s funny how we can reframe things. My high school bully apologized to me and I accepted it. I’m so proud to be a poor kid from the backwoods of the northwest. I don’t run from it anymore.
Celebrating my pal @mattbomer on his @toddsnyderny campaign and his INCREDIBLE show on @showtime #FellowTravelers. If you haven’t seen you must check it out. Sexy, sweeping, and gorgeously acted by the entire ensemble.

Opening night of ONCE UPON A MATTRESS. Jan 24, 2024. New York, New York ♥️ My little musical theatre heart is filled up with joy.
Thinking of you today Mark Bingham. It was a privilege portraying you in the film #United93 and I honor your memory as well as your mother Alice Hoagland’s and all of the souls lost that day. #NeverForget
My forever Valentine. Best ten years of my life, babe.
My eyes are red because I just sobbed through @akimbomusical Sometimes art hits you in the guts like nothing else can and this piece destroyed me. Anchored by my beloved @victoriajclark and supported by the most incredible cast, I’m just moved and inspired beyond words. ❤️

Tonight was a special night at my show at @54below 🥹 Not only was my friend, the iconic @sandragbernhard in the audience to support me, this happened. Unfortunately, earlier in the day my guest for the night, who is one of my closest friends wasn’t feeling well so I asked @jessicavosk with a couple hours notice to step in. We’d never sung the song before 10 minutes before we went on, but something magical happens when two lifelong hardcore @indigogirlsmusic fans sing together for the first time. I was emotional with the moment so it’s not perfect, but it was perfectly imperfect and I had to share. This little residency at @54below has been quite the unexpected artistic gift. Two more nights to go. ❤️

Backstage steps just hit different
Eternal, juicy, endless love for them. Our holiday tradition continued last night at The Dolby. Two incredible old-school, razor-sharp talents do it again. If you need a dose of open-hearted joy in your life, do yourself a favor and go see them. #LittleMug
