Aris Kakkis - Chad and Daniel

Aris is honored to return to the CSH Playhouse for the 5th time after previous roles in Urinetown, 12 Angry Jurors, Working The Musical, and Beyond Therapy. Though he has ignored repeated requests to seek some kind of musical theatre therapy - he draws much of his characterizations from the sage advice he has received throughout the years while waiting in line at Costco. He sends his love to all of his family and friends, both real and imagined, for letting him pursue his dream of performing and singing on stage. Special love to my CSH Playhouse family: Marshelle, Suzanne, Brittany, and Jessica. Last, but definitely not least: A big shout out to YOU for coming to see us tonight!
