He later attended Riverdale Country School and then Yale University. While at Yale, he honed his comedic skills by contributing to The Yale Record, a campus humor magazine. Chances are, when you turn on your TV, you’ll hear Phil’s voice! He's been Wednesday, June 7, 2017 working in Hollywood since the 60’s, lending his talents to more movies, TV 11:00 AM shows, commercials, and video games than we could possibly list here. Some of his characters include: the drunken monkey from “Dr. Doolittle”; Dr. Vidic from “Assassin’s Creed”; the Chef in “Spirited Away”; Charlie in “Monsters, Inc.”; Sea Horse Bob in “Finding Nemo”; and Howard in “Rugrats.” Notable among Phil’s many accomplishments is his work with The Firesign Theater, an American comedy troupe he co-founded in the '60s. The troupe is known for their surrealistic stream of consciousness style that weaves together movies, radio, television, political figures, pop culture references, and sound effects. Luckily, many of their recordings are available for a new generation to enjoy. Phil lives in Hollywood with his wife Melinda. His daughter, Kristin, is pursuing her acting career in Los Angeles.

  • Press Kit (PDF)
    Synopsis 1 The ocean is a wilderness reaching 'round the globe, wilder than a Bengal jungle, and fuller of monsters, washing the very wharves of our cities and the gardens of our sea-side residences. - Henry David Thoreau, 1864 For the nineteenth century, the world beneath the sea played much the same role that "outer space" played for the twentieth. The ocean depths were at once the ultimate scientific frontier and what Coleridge called "the reservoir of the soul": the place of the unconscious, of imagination and the fantastic. Proteus uses the undersea world as the locus for a meditation on the troubled intersection of scientific and artistic vision. The one-hour film is based almost entirely on the images of nineteenth century painters, graphic artists, photographers and scientific illustrators, photographed from rare materials in European and American collections and brought to life through innovative animation. The central figure of the film is biologist and artist Ernst Haeckel (1834-1919). As a young man, Haeckel found himself torn between seeming irreconcilables: science and art, materialism and religion, rationality and passion, outer and inner worlds. Through his discoveries beneath the sea, Haeckel would eventually reconcile these dualities, bringing science and art together in a unitary, almost mystical vision. His work would profoundly influence not only biology but also movements, thinkers and authors as disparate as Art Nouveau and Surrealism, Sigmund Freud and D.H. Lawrence, Vladimir Lenin and Thomas Edison. The key to Haeckel's vision was a tiny undersea organism called the radiolarian. Haeckel discovered, described, classified and painted four thousand species of these one-celled creatures.

We’re thrilled to have Martin McDonagh’s Irish yarn, The Cripple of Inishmaan, on our stage as the second show of our 2018/19 season. The play is set in a tiny and remote Irish village where everyone is keen to know everyone else’s business, where gossip is a major part of daily life and the truth becomes harder and harder to glean. It’s a dark and funny tale that is perfect for our own fact-challenged time. We think of the Antaeus community as a village, too (albeit a much healthier and vibrant one than windswept Inishmaan!) and a big change is coming our way: our Co-Artistic Director Rob Nagle will be stepping down from this position in February. It’s not possible to fully express the gigantic impact Rob’s leadership has had to Antaeus.

We’re paying homage to the sassiest, smartest, sexiest heroines, villainesses, and creators without a Y-chromo- some . These Wonder Women are kicking butt and taking names, in numbers too big to ignore! Where would Harry Potter be without Hermione Granger, Han and Luke without Leia Organa, the Doctor without his many, vivacious companions? Can you imagine the “X-men” without Rogue, Phoenix, Storm, and Kitty Pryde? Who would want to? Additionally there are the women who stand on their own two feet .

Well, I guess I *have* done that--but that point of view was fifteen years ago, and I was operating on paradigms from the past even back then. Since then, I have been using little bits of FT stuff in dribs and drabs--the cognoscenti among my listeners knew its provenance, and that was fine by me. But things change as time drags on. Last night in the tub, I got to thinking--when was the last time you actually heard anyone devote a chunk of radio time to the full appreciation of some of the Firesign Theatre's finest works? It's been so long that most of my listeners have little understanding of FT and what exactly they brought to the entertainment-starved freaks out there in the world--a whole panoply of audio insanity that still unreels, unbidden, word-for-word out of my cortex to this very day.
