Dan and Joel in costume! (Aren't they cute?)
Close up of Joel.
Joel masked as he is when he and the other noblemen kidnap Gilda.

Joel had a wonderful time working for Opera Carolina in their production of Rigoletto. Recently, Joel (and Dan's wife, Stephanie) was fully accepted to Winthrop University to study with John Fowler. We are still waiting to hear on the financial aspects, but if all goes well, Joel will work on his Masters in Vocal Performance, to be completed in two years. Everybody, PLEASE PRAY FOR FINANCIAL AID!!!!
