You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown

Lucy

This outdoor production during the summer of 2020 featured socially-distant staging, 6-foot-wide noodle hats, and the occasional comedic mask reveal.

Eternal Jamnation

Singer/Dancer

I took on the role of show captain for this sexy vampire rock revue. We kicked our faces, screlted Mötley Crüe, and maybe drew a little blood along the way.

LEGACY TAFFETA CHRISTMAS 12-1-17---395.j

A Taffeta Christmas

Cheryl

Under the direction of Melissa Zaremba,

we turned a short script dominated by music into a hilarious account of four sisters working together to create the perfect 1950s Christmas special.

Throuple
The Movie

Choreographer/Dancer

 

Your new favorite queer non-monogamous rock n’ roll romcom. Premiering in 2024.

LEGACY POLKADOTS 4-26-18---216.jpg

Polkadots: The Cool Kids Musical

Penelope

After each show, the cast sat on stage and answered questions from children in the audience. Sometimes silly and sometimes serious, we opened up an important conversation about loving one another no matter what we look like.

LEGACY FOOTLOOSE 8-7-15-1008.jpg

Footloose

​

Wendy Jo

Urleen and I shared the role of dance captain, rotating 80 children in 4 different casts in and out of the show each week. 

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST ..BETHANY 7-15-17--

Beauty and the Beast

Babette

In the shortest quick change of my life, Babette transformed into a napkin to finish out Act I as the twelfth and final member of the kickline in Be Our Guest.

Godspell

​

Morgan (Turn Back, O Man)

This production was the most collaborative acting experience of my career. Together we morphed a series of Biblical parables into a show that was part playground, part rock concert, and part heartbreaking drama.

LEGACY JUNIE B JINGLE BELLS 11-30-17---1

Junie B. in Jingle Bells, Batman Smells!

Junie B. Jones

Junie B. was a fun challenge in bringing a beloved literary character to life on the stage. She's spunky and energetic and a role I'd love to tackle again.

Hairspray

Amber

It's easy to write off Hairspray as just a fun musical. Before opening night, I reminded our cast how important and difficult it is to put on a show with generations of emotion and trauma behind it. Here's hoping that soon, we'll no longer need to tell this story.
