Performer, administrator, writer, and vocalist Jonathan Spencer tells us about how he is helping carry on a show that has been a California tradition since the 1920's, how getting (and beating) cancer actually ended up being a lucky break for him, and then maybe inadvertently reveals that he is actually a Time Lord.LinksBracebridge Dinner (bracebridgedinner.com) - John is both Production Manager and plays Squire Neville in this holiday tradition that transforms the grand Dining Room at Yosemite Park's The Ahwahnee into an elaborate Renaissance hall for a remarkable dining experience full of Christmas pageantry and tradition. Pocket Opera (pocketopera.org) - John will be appearing in Pocket Opera's production of King For a Day in April 2016.Lamplighters Music Theater (lamplighters.org) - John is a long-time performer with this company producing the comic operas of Gilbert & Sullivan and other comparable works, and will be heard in their upcoming releases of recordings of The Grand Duke and HMS Pinafore.
