Who's Who
Joel Carr the Front of House Coordinator
Joel is the reason things work around here. He keeps everyone in line and makes sure we have drinks for the audience. He's really the most important person in the theather and if you doubt that, try to cross him! We ALL love you Joel!!!
Hank Adams as Henchman
Hank Adams is originally from the New York City area and was involved in the health and fitness industry until taking on improv and stand-up. He has acted in regional performances of Mixed Doubles, Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolff and Noises Off. Hank looks forward to expanding his comedic experiences into the unique and surprising world of Steamworks The Musical.
Brian Bloomer as Al
Brian Bloomer first appeared on a South Florida stage nearly four years ago in Ronnie Larsen’s initial production of Party. Since then Brian has been seen on stage in various shows, some in drag, some even with clothes on! Working behind the scenes in various capacities has deepened his appreciation for everyone’s efforts. “Thank you to John for your never-ending love and support, to Ronnie for assembling such a fun cast, and to our audience for supporting local theater!”
Doug Bonds as Twinkee Dum
While physically "petite," his personality is most definitely XXXL (as is his endowment) -- his piercing blue eyes and once-all-blond hair lull you into thinking sexy sweetness when you should be fearing strongwilled stubborn. Doug returns to theater -- a feature of his youth.-- to assert: 50's are the old 20's. Nudist Doug regrets his current character remains clothed and celibate -- perhaps he'll ad lib. Originally from Chattanooga Tennessee has lived in South Florida for 16 years. Chicago has been a second home for Doug, taking all this into consideration, he is very excited to be a member of the STEAMWORKS Cast.
Billy Boyd as Turd
My very first theatrical plunge. A virgin, of sorts. From Washington DC, you’d think acting and faking it would be easy. What was I thinking? LOL. My sincere thanks to Ronnie and fellow cast for their much needed encouragement and huge helping hands. It’s been fun.
Robert Cervera as Bloody Band Aid
Robert is so excited to be returning to the stage after a 7 year absence. Robert's favorite show's include, Angel in Rent, Peter in Company, Ambrose Kemper in Hello Dolly, and Man #2 in The World goes Round, as well as a shark in West Side Story. Other shows include, Reefer Madness, My Fair Lady, Peter in Kiss me Kate, and Red, Hot, and Cole. Robert has an A.A. Degree in Fashion Design, he enjoys making jewelry, and working out in his spare time, as well as spending time with his boyfriend and good friends. He'd like to thank his family for their unwavering love and support.
