Joshua – Commissioned by Spark & Echo

It was a pleasure to act with John Egan in his short film ‘Joshua’. John was commissioned by Spark & Echo Arts to create piece of theater inspired by the book of Joshua from the bible. After sitting with it for a while the piece it shifted from a theatrical piece to a short film, and became a story about going to war and the rhetoric and personal cost of that decision. It’s an inspiring piece realized in three scenes. I was thankful for the generous help of Liam Dick, Shem Ogweno, behind the camera and Francis J. Spieler for playing the father.

This is Shem, sitting in for Mr. Spieler while we settle on a frame.
