Ryan Travis participated in a talk-back segment at Art Rage earlier this year.

We got word that two artistic figures will be departing: Ryan Hope Travis and Tim Bond. It’s always hard to see good people leave,but we were glad we got to meet them and experience the fruits of their artistic labor.

We wish them both good luck and continued success.

Being Brian Dennehy

Timothy Bond, Artistic Director, Syracuse Stage

Timothy Bond, Producing Artistic Director at Syracuse Stage, said Brian Dennehy was one of his heroes because he practices what he preaches about the importance of regional theater.

Seasoned actor Brian Dennehy, whose son attends Syracuse University, was a special guest for the Friday night portion of Orange Central.  He was joined in conversation and an occasional gut-busting laugh by Syracuse Stage’s Timothy Bond.

The event was held at the Joyce Hergenhan Auditorium (Newhouse complex).

During the hour-long program,  Dennehy gave numerous anecdotes about writers Jimmy Breslin and Frank McCourt, as well as actors Kevin Kline and Zero Mostel.

He discuseed his numerous roles in film, television and his first love, regional theater. “What happens in the theater can only happen in the theater,” he said.

Dennehy, whose career spans five decades, also gave a reading, told some jokes, and even sang during a musical interlude with pianist Jeff Sawyer (an SU grad).
