Well now I have bid the Showboat Majestic a fond farewell.   I had such a great time working on this show.   Thanks to everyone who came out to support us!

Now that the summer is winding down, it’s time to take a look at some of the projects I’ll be working on this fall –

Miscast:  September 18-20 in the Jubilee Directing Lab Theatre.

Miscast is a concert where each actor performs a role he or she is completely wrong for.  For example, I get to be Usnavi from In the Heights.  It’s incredibly fun to see everyone get to try something new.  Besides, this show is a fundraiser for the Jubilee Directing Lab Theatre.    The Jubilee is Wright State’s student-run theatre, and great, unique shows happen there pretty much every weekend.  Definitely worth supporting them!  Interested?

Nerd Fun: October 31-November 1 at the Jubilee Directing Lab Theatre.

Nerd Fun is the debut of my cabaret act.  Main topic of the evening: whether or not being a nerd will benefit me in show business and in life.  I’ll be singing lots of my favorite songs – everything from Gershwin to Sondheim to Bucchino.  And some of my friends will be there for fun duets! Basically, I get to channel my inner Broadway diva for an evening of showtunes and geekdom.  Come see it!

The Pajama Game: October 29-November 15 in the Festival Playhouse at Wright State University.

The Pajama Game is the 1954 Adler & Ross musical about workers in a pajama factory and their pursuit of a 7 and 1/2 cent raise.  I’m playing Mabel, one of the secretaries.   The Pajama Game has a lot of songs you’ll know – “Hey There” or “Hernando’s Hideaway”, for example – plus you just can’t say no to a show about pajamas.  It’ll be fun.  More information here.

Looks like I’m up for a busy quarter.  More events to come!
