(Ours is 1966) I play a computer scientist who’s quiet Christmas is interrupted with the news that his bubbly neighbor (Chelsea) has won a Christmas contest to host a variety show in her living room. The twist? She submitted his address not hers, oh and she told them they’re married! It’s cute, charming and very nostalgic. The great and almighty @aliliebert does a fantastic job directing it. Hope you enjoy. Merry Christmas 🎄". Facebook.
- "The Christmas Ring in theaters now. 🎥 I’ve always been in love with acting. I’ve had the privilege of doing it a while, but not nearly as long as this fine gentleman. Every now and then, I’m blessed to dance with some of the greats. One of the connecting threads is the pride they take in their craft. Kelsey is kind, caring, and a wonderful scene partner. I can see the joy he still finds in his work, and that is my goal as an actor — to be old and still very much in love with what I do. Get your tickets 🎟️ & I’ll see you at the movies.". Instagram.
