  • The Story Ep. 40.5 : John Milosich

    Super excited to announce new guest, John Milosich, to The Story!

    Born in Buffalo NY, raised in Erie Pa, Actor-Musician John “Milo” Milosich continues to recalibrate his trajectory as a creative and a performer. He taught music and theater in public and private schools for ten years. Scrubbing toilets in exchange for acting and dance classes at Synetic Theater lead him to mainstage shows with them at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and neighboring DC theaters.

    He composed music for live performance by a gypsy punk band in a devised rendition of the Brechtian play Mother Courage and Her Children. It paid $50 and a case of PBR, but there he took up the accordion to soon after earn a role in a two-year Broadway touring production that ran in 70 cities across the US, Canada and Japan. He acted, played guitar, accordion and foot percussion at Arena Stage in DC, Kansas City Repertory Theatre and Baltimore Center Stage before the pandemic, but has yet to be cast in a theatre production close to Lancaster. Instead, he’s the ringleader of the accordion-powered romp-rock band for adventurers, Featherburn, and the one-man ensemble, MiloSolo.
