Background

  • I am a member of West Philadelphia's Curio Theatre Company, where I last performed in Jared Reed's two person adaptation of The Iliad. It was always my dream to appear in my favorite works of literature, and I hope to one day play Lucy Snowe in Charlotte Bronte's Villette. Any adapters out there who want to take it on? I learned to act during my Junior Year Abroad in Paris when I was thrown into a class with native Parisians and realized, to my horror, that I had spent the past four months being incredibly sheltered and didn't speak the language nearly as well as I had imagined. I taught myself the art of listening, which was a wonderful preview to the Meisner Technique, which I would later study and learn to love at The Neighborhood Playhouse School in Manhattan. Favorite Roles: Theresa in Boy Gets Girl at Celebration Theatre; Maggie in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof at Colonial Playhouse; Valerie in The Weir at Curio Theatre; Lavinia in Mourning Becomes Electra on the Second Stage at the Player's Club of Swarthmore. I am currently understudying the role of Josie Hogan in "A Moon for the Misbegotten" at the Arden and will be seen at Curio in "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" in April.
