About Us
We are two Broadway actors who have known each other for several years.  Over the years we've discovered we have many common interests: good food, good wine and great theater.  While working together in the national tour of Les Miserables we recently discovered that we had another common interest, the stories of the people in the world of theater.

James Chip Leonard (chip@broadwaylivingtrial.com) was raised on a farm on the plains of Iowa.  It's there that he had his first exposure to the limelight when he won the Iowa State Fair talent search.  He received a BFA in Acting from SUNY Purchase.  His theatrical credits include the Alabama Shakespeare Festival, 110 In The Shade at the New York City Opera and numerous roles in the final Broadway company, the 3rd National Tour and the current Broadway revival of Les Miserables.  Chip is also a professional editor, director, producer and videographer.  He has directed two feature films and his video clients include Mercedes Benz, Fortune 500 companies and many mid-size and small companies. 

Roger Seyer (roger@broadwaylivingtrial.com) grew up in Southeast Missouri on the banks of the Mississippi River.  He's the sixth of eight children.  He earned his first paycheck as a professional performer at the age of 19 from Six Flags over Mid-America where he performed in the "Miss Kitty's Revue".  He graduated from Millikin University in Decatur, IL with a BFA in Musical Theater and a minor in Dance.  Roger has worked as a producer, director and choreographer but mainly as an actor.  His theatrical credits include numerous regional theater appearances, the national tours of Les Miserables and Mamma Mia, and the Broadway productions of Miss Saigon and Les Miserables. 

The stories we've heard from our colleagues over the years have amused, amazed and fascinated us, so much so that the idea for this web site grew out of a desire to share their stories with you.  We hope you'll be just as intrigued as we are.
