Working with "Attack Theatre" and choreographers Peter Kope and Michele De La Reza in Pittsburgh, PA, on their amazing new and innovative show "The Fitting Room" turned out to be one of the best and most creatively fulfilling experiences of my life. I had the opportunity to sing and compose musical styles from Middle Eastern, French folk, jazz, experimental electronica, beautiful pop ballads and even an original French aria by Dave Eggar. Having received an overwhelmingly positive response, we are now looking forward to touring the show. Many of these new pieces of music will appear on my upcoming CD "Prayer"
