Albert has had diverse roles in both film and theater, not limiting himself to roles stereotypically played by Asians.
In film, he was recently cast in Walt Disney Pictures and Spyglass Entertainment’s live-action version of the classic cartoon Underdog, due in theaters August 2007. Among other projects, Albert has portrayed an Internal Affairs Lieutenant in the crime drama Interrogation (executive produced by Jeff Most of The Crow), a punk musician and love interest of the title character in Ana’s Time, a vengeful casino assistant in the award-winning S. Katz, V.P., an awkward teenager in the supernatural drama #2 Pencil, and a foul-mouthed Chinese national in the award-winning feature Overserved.
In theater, Albert has been nominated for the 2005-2006 Best Actor award by the Eastern Massachusetts Association of Community Theaters (EMACT) for his role as Adam in The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told at the Boston Center for the Arts. Albert has also performed in The Theater Offensive’s musical workshop Surviving the Nian as Vincent, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s (MIT) Carmen as El Remendado, and MIT’s Gilbert & Sullivan operetta Utopia, Limited as Mr. Blushington.
Albert will be appearing on stage next in the World Premiere and Tour of Thomas DeFrantz’s Queer Theory! A Musical Travesty as Michel, a character based on French philosopher Michel Foucault; the show will premiere at the Boston Center for the Arts in October 2006 and subsequently tour to the Flynn Center for the Performing Arts in Burlington, VT and MIT in Cambridge, MA.
