In August 2018, Joel Paszkowski moved over to New York from his homeland of Australia. Ever since, he has been studying the sacred art of writing for musical theatre, and believes that he will one day be paid for his work in the field. He’s been trying to pull off having longer hair, and is still unsure if it’s working for him, so show some support. He hopes to impress his girlfriend, Rachel, with his music at the Cabaret and can’t wait to go rock climbing with her. Joel’s a rockclimber.
