Think of the most obnoxious theatre kid you know. Someone who openly wept when Ariana Grande held Cynthia Erivo's finger. Someone who thinks that Cats the musical is misunderstood, and that the upcoming immersive production of Phantom is a stroke of absolute genius, and you've got Harry. Because he's not pretentious on purpose but he's absolutely annoying as all get out when it comes to the art and humanity aspect of theatre. Growing up as a child of Cassandra July, Harrison knew that his mother was never around and had far better things to do than be involved in the lives of her children. Moreover, he knew that if he wanted Mommy's attention, he had to do something big. Make a bold choice. Use an action verb. So he did. He decided to pursue the one thing that he knew would make his mother proud of him-- by trying to upstage her. In New York's theatre scene, Harrison made a name for himself. He played some of the big roles, he hung out in the ensemble. He spent a few years working in LA, where he fell in love and quickly found heartbreak. He knew though, deep in his soul, that it wasn't enough to simply act out the stories, he needed to tell them, too. Harrison is in LA for the unforeseeable future, where he is premiering his new play, that is based on his former relationship. He's happy to be closer to his siblings for the time being, but he's not anticipating staying in California long.
