Hey, DC storytellers! Our Internet access finally returned this morning after Hurricane Isabel came a-thunderin' through, so I can, at long last, share with you some of our featured perfomers. First up is Talon Beeson, an old friend of mine who is coming all the way from Chicago to regale us with stories of his adventures in the theater business. For his bio, Talon writes:

Talon Beeson is an actor/voice over artist living and working in Chicago, Illinois. He can be heard as the character George Sebastian on the nationally-syndicated radio drama "Left Behind" as well as the national radio spokesman for DeVry University. He recently returned from New York City, where he played Dr. Caravello in the NY premiere of "Poseidon! An Upside Down Musical" (where he got the story he'll be telling). He is thrilled the Cubs are in the postseason. Go Bears!

When I first spoke with him about this, he was also threatening to bring his guitar. Stay tuned! (Um, no pun intended. I swear.)
