(November 22, 2013, Tucson, Arizona); With his iconic score for the Terminator, Brad Fiedel shook up

the world of film composing and won international acclaim.  You may not know his name but you have

heard his music.  Brad Fiedel's new one-man musical highlights the composer's association with film-

industry powerhouses such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kathryn Bigelow and James Cameron but is

really a tale of an artist reclaiming his musical voice.  With roots in a bohemian New York art school run

by his parents, Fiedel came of age during the insurgent 1960's.  Interweaving songs written over several

decades, BORROWED TIME tells the story of Fiedel's heartfelt journey from radical youth to successful

composer and of an eventual need to free himself from the Hollywood machine. Poignant and funny,

Fiedel's musical adventure is sure to leave you humming and hopeful.

WHO'S WHO?

 

ANN DUSENBERRY

Ann Dusenberry (Director/Co-Producer) began her career in theatre at the age of 7 studying acting with Mary MacMurtrie at the YWCA here in Tucson.  She moved up University Avenue 11 years later to attend drama classes in the Theater Arts Department at the U of A.  Ann transferred to, and later graduated from, Occidental College.  With her BA in Theater Arts, and 8 summers in repertory theater, she began her foray into acting in Hollywood, enjoying a successful twenty-year run.  In 1996 Ann's family moved to Santa Barbara where she began directing children's theater at The Waldorf School of Santa Barbara and La Cumbre Middle School.  As her children grew, Ann began acting again, first with Santa Barbara City College Theater Group, then as co-producer of MORNING'S AT SEVEN, and director of the 2010 production of BILL W. AND DR. B, both for Happy Destiny Productions at Center Stage Theater.

 

 

BRAD FIEDEL

Brad Fiedel (Writer/Composer/Performer) was raised in the creative hot house of his parents' school of the arts.  In his early teens he took up rock and roll and evolved into a singer/songwriter, playing in clubs around the East Coast.  In his mid 20's he stumbled into the world of film and television, and ended up spending 25 years composing original scores for a wide variety of projects.  Brad's complete list of credits can be found on his website: www.bradfiedel.net. With BORROWED TIME he returns to his first love, sharing his songs with an audience.  Brad would like to thank everyone who helped this dream become a reality, especially Ann Dusenberry and Jan     Ruskin whose tireless support, energy and heart are onstage with him every night.  He dedicates this show to his daughters Alixandra and Zoe, and to the memory of his parents Ivan and Roslyn Fiedel.
