Womxn in the Sequel

I'll be producing an online staged reading of Lauren Gunderson's The Revolutionists as well as I'll be playing Marie Antoinette! I've been doing online readings throughout quarantine, and I re-fell in love with Lauren Gunderson's The Revolutionists a few months ago, and wanted to assemble a badass team to bring this show to life. I asked my dear friend Billie Aken-Tyers to direct, because I know she could elevate this piece to incredible heights even through a screen, and asked my dear friend (and previous roommate at Theatre Aspen!) Domino Mannheim to Stage Manage! I'm also playing opposite one of my FAVORITE performers, Kuhoo Verma (whose performance in Octet has been one of my favorite of all time!) All ticket proceeds will be donated to The ACLU, and the reason why we're performing the show on August 18th is because it's the anniversary of the ratification of the 19th amendment, which granted women the right to vote. Just seemed fitting, no? Can't wait to jump in! Check out more info below:

We Carry On: a series of short radio plays by my dear pal, Billie Aken-Tyers, is now live on Apple podcasts and Spotify!! Please give us a listen, like, subscribe and review so we can make more! I had the pleasure of narrating the first three episodes, and we hope to do more soon! 

We Carry On is an Anthology series exploring love, sex and loss during a time of great turmoil. In its many forms, love manifests in us all in the face of danger. Beginnings, endings or somewhere in between, We Carry on explores its many faces through the lens of the Second World War.

Revisiting Much Ado About Nothing, this time, playing our favorite ENFP heroine, Beatrice! Tomorrow we have our first performance online via Zoom, as well as Saturday. It's been a joy to have something artistically fulfilling during this pandemic to look forward to, and I'm so glad I got to explore a dream role for a slice of time.

Finally got to accomplish something that's been on my bucket list for a majority of my life - go to Paris! 

I spent a much needed week exploring all over the city, and got into a whole lot of Parisian mischief during my time. Truly an unforgettable experience, and definitely have a strong feeling of wanderlust. 

​Looking forward to seeing what 2020 holds!

I always love the opportunity to work with new writers, especially female-identifying ones, and this summer I had the privilege to work with Jessica Kahkoska. Kahkoska was the resident artist and part of New Works Initiative this summer at Southern Colorado Repertory Theatre. 

I was thrilled to read the part of Lea in one of her works, In Her Bones; additionally, I read for Betty in a snippet of The Death of Desert Rose. ​It was such a great opportunity to work with another female creative this summer, and I so look forward to seeing more of this wonderful playwright's work.
