Sean Patrick Murtagh Celebrates his 10th “New Yorkiversary” tonight, Saturday, May 2nd at 6:00 pm with a living room concert! After a little success in the print/commercial world, he dove into theatre and fell in love with it. The journey brought him from San Francisco to Orange county, where he earned a B.A. in Drama from the University of California, Irvine and appeared in many of their mainstage shows, as well as produced his own concert in the Claire Trevor Theater. Murtagh has had the great pleasure of working with some of the best the performing arts industry has to offer, including Andrea Marcovicci, Robert Cuccioli, Victoria Clark, Teri Ralston, Paul Gordon, Joshua Finkle and many more who help keep the arts young, fresh and alive.
