Cindy
Lyndin has been a private voice instructor and coach for actors, in
addition to being a theatrical director and producer, award-winning vocal
director, commercial actor and voice Talent (SAG/AFTRA), and having served
as Executive Director/Producer for various arts organizations. Cindy
has released two albums of lullabies, and has spent time in advertising
and publishing. Though she caught the show business bug from her
father's extensive collection of Broadway cast albums, she actually began
her performing career at the age of 10 as a featured part of her parents'
touring magic act.
“I remember my time on the boards in the family’s magic
act, The Amazing Aladdins. We toured the West and were featured at conventions
of all types. My mom was a dancer till my dad turned her into a magician’s
assistant. Dad spent his early adulthood thoroughly enjoying playing the
villain and the piano with Denver’s Windsor Players, a melodrama troupe.
Years and years later the Northwest came to know him as Beepo the Clown.
Greasepaint runs in our genes and I begin to see evidence of that theater
heritage in my children. Right now they are my most immediate
and enthusiastic audience, and they know our act by heart.”
Cindy develops the musical arrangements and medleys for the team.

William
Warren develops the dancing and staging for the Lyndin & Warren
team. His credits include work in New York and Boston, Eugene and
Portland , but he, too, began his stage career at the age of 10 as a magician
and escape artist. Born and raised in NYC, he began dancing at the
age of 15 and became an avid student of all the musical theater Broadway
had to offer.
“My first recollection is being very young and dancing
to a Red Buttons song at a neighborhood place down the street where we
lived in the Bronx, New York City. Suddenly, I was showered with
more coins than I’d ever seen. The silver dollars were especially memorable.
I was hooked. Later on a friend and I gave the usual backyard shows
where we tested our magic act. He was the real magician, but I had the
tails and top hat. He cast me as the escape artist. Watching a Fred
Astaire movie on television led to a real interest in dance. Years after
that I had the pleasure of interviewing a series of show biz greats for
a Boston radio station, and Astaire was among them.”
A little song, a little dance,
a little romance....
