Dear Liz and Mr. Marlucci: It has been a while since I lived in the Bay Area, but Frank Farris might be an excellent choice. Last I knew, he was a Math Professor at University of Santa Clara. He and I sang in an Offenbach operetta at CSUHayward years ago and he has extensive G&S experience, a beautiful voice and handsome besides! --Erica
