This same weekend, Jon had the pleasure of performing a sample of Sinan Unel's new play Miller Hill at Lesley University as part of a showcase of the faculty's work. 

Jon returned to the Hub Theatre Company of Boston as St. Thomas/Matthias for their fall production of The Last Days of Judas Iscariot.
