Al ChristensonWhat originally began as the dress-rehearsal and headshot photographer for a small non-profit theatre company in Northern California gradually became a more-involved participation in acting and eventually, in learning more about writing. Acting credits include Sagot in Picasso at the Lapin Agile, The Cabby in Harvey, Rev. Dr. Harper in Arsenic and Old Lace, and The Sheriff in Romeo & Juliet. With a few plays in progress and writing Tom Tenor in the 2019 24 Hour Theatre at BHCT, he is “hooked” on the freedom and the challenge of writing and thoroughly enjoys the comradery of the group in Broken Lemons. It is exciting to read and hear some of the interesting and humorous creations of the other “Lemons” in the group.
