Doug Shapiro does it again! This especially delicious year at The Barnstormers Theatre included an extended tap break as Thomas Nostradamus in SOMETHING ROTTEN! and some diva hammery in the word premiere of FRONT ROW TO MURDER. What else could you ask for?
Read the nice words the critics are saying about Doug below!
FRONT ROW TO MURDER

“Many parts were written with certain actors in mind, such as Shapiro, who plays Douglas, a preening prima donna.
Anyone who has met Shapiro knows he isn’t a vain drama queen, but (author Jordan) Reeves knew it was the type of juicy role Shapiro would bring to life with flamboyant grandeur and delightful wit. And he delivers just that.”
SOMETHING ROTTEN!

"Desperate for a surefire hit, Nick visits Nostradamus’ nephew Thomas Nostradamus (Doug Shapiro), who has his famous uncle’s gift of soothsaying... at a more affordable rate.
The ever-reliable Shapiro pops up several times throughout the show and always scores a laugh with perfectly timed jokes."
