Sesame contributions include the introduction song for Julia, the first muppet with autism.

He is possibly best known as “Tambourine Guy,” an original member of the viral music collective Postmodern Jukebox, a YouTube channel with over 1 billion views. With sold out shows across 6 continents, Tim has toured extensively with the group playing sold out world famous venues. He also created “Postmodern JUICEbox,” a preschool friendly version of PMJ.

Arden Children's Theatre presents "The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales"

Based on the beloved book by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith, adapted by John Glore, the production brings the book's fractured fairy tales to life for kids and adults alike.
