This Sunday – A Reading of LEX JULIA – 2pm at the Lounge!

Posted on by

I’m excited to be back at the Lounge Theatre this coming Sunday, where I will be playing fiery Julia Augusti, in a staged reading of LEX JULIA. This riveting new play is written by Mel Green and directed by Leslie Ferreira.

LEX JULIA takes place in a time when Rome was in transition from Republic to Empire. A time when Julia, an educated, politically savvy party girl, was the only person her father, the first Emperor, couldn’t control. A time, when control always reigned supreme and a daughter who didn’t abide by Daddy’s rules…might just have to disappear. This is the exile of Julia Augusti. Please join us at 2pm on Sunday, March 20th at the Lounge Theatre.

Hello 2016 and a toast to 2015

Posted on by

ball-dropWishing everyone a wonderful 2016 – may it be your best year ever!

As I look back on 2015, I am so grateful for the many memories, opportunities and experiences that this year brought.

As an audiobook narrator, the year started with much excitement at being nominated for an Audie Award for Stars: Original Stories Based on the Songs of Janis Ian. I was then extremely honored to be asked to be a presenter at The 20th Annual Audie Awards in New York City. What a magical night that was! Throughout the year, I have had the tremendous pleasure of working with many new publishers and authors, on a wide variety of fascinating titles.

As an actor, I began the year by getting cast in a hard-hitting short film. I performed on stage in several staged play readings at various theatres, finishing off the year by playing Phaedra in Phaedra, a production that ran for 3 weeks in Los Angeles.  96 Souls, a feature film that I was cast in last year, had its first cast and crew screening at the Landmark Theatres in Los Angeles and as the year drew to a close, I signed with an awesome new commercial and theatrical agent.

Farewell, 2015! It’s been an amazing year and one that I’m extremely thankful for.

What an incredible joy it has been to work once more with long-time friend and colleague, Tony Tanner. I am beyond thrilled to be stepping into the sandals of Phaedra over the next few weeks, alongside an extraordinary cast, as we bring this ultimate tale of unrequited love and its dire consequence, to life.

Stepping on stage this weekend as Liz, the First of England

Posted on by

tumblr_lw3y7oYMnC1qdwkdyo1_500I’m excited to take a Queenly  step back on stage this weekend as Liz, the First of England in a staged reading of new play, Three Elizabeths, written by the incredibly talented, Tony-nominated Theatre Director and Choreographer, Tony Tanner.

The premise of this piece is so unique, I’m really looking forward to seeing how the audience reacts. Elizabeth the First, in three different stages of her life. Three different actresses on stage at the same time – Elizabeth the younger, Elizabeth the Queen, Elizabeth the Dowager.  Figures from their past re-emerge and interact with them.

This coming Sunday, Sept. 6th at the Studio Stage Theatre in Hollywood at 1pm.  Hope to see you there!

LAST FLIGHT OF THE MERCENARY a comedy of science & love – takes off this Sunday!

Posted on by

seaplane2I’m looking forward to stepping onto the stage this coming Sunday, April 12th at the Skylight Theatre! My accomplished cast & I will be doing a staged reading of the LAST FLIGHT OF THE MERCENARY, a romantic comedy about string theory, Shakespeare and nights without stars. This charming, witty and engaging new play is written by the very talented Karen Howes and directed by the skillful, Dennis Gersten.  In LAST FLIGHT OF THE MERCENARY, I play fiery Kate Eveland, a scientist committed to creating a time machine that will take her back in time to this one particular moment in her life when she made the wrong choice in love. Perhaps by traveling back in time, Kate can fix her past and thereby live in a happier present? That’s what she’s hoping for and so are we! Time machine, anyone?

LAST FLIGHT OF THE MERCENARY is part of Skylight Theatre’s INKubator Play Reading Series which offers a first glimpse into new projects.
