Hairspray
October 11, 2013-November 10, 2013
You really can't stop the beat! After just a month off from Hairspray, I'm getting ready to leave for another production of the show as Amber Von Tussle. I will be spending this fall at Arizona Broadway Theatre, and I couldn't be more thrilled!
HONK!
June 22, 2013-June 23, 2013
"Just believe, in yourself, don't be left, on the shelf, feeling that all hope is dead and gone. And you may, find in your own way: you're a swan!" These lyrics got me THROUGH a very challenging and rewarding week as choreographer for Music People for Young People's production of Honk! This was my choreographic debut, and I couldn't have been more thrilled to share it with this organization that helped groom me into the actress and person I am today AND with these fabulous kids.
Hairspray
July 23, 2013-July 27, 2013
The only thing better than Hairspray? HAIRSPRAY AGAIN! And this time with Miss Donna Drake as director and Rhonda Miller as choreographer. I am the most excited Emmeline to be working with Miss Donna again (who has taken to calling me Baby Donna Drake...WOOF large shoes to fill). This time around I am playing Shelley and understudying Penny in upstate New York with CPS productions. I cannot wait for rehearsals to get underway!
Grease
April 26, 2013-May 18, 2013
A Wop Bom a Loo Bop! Grease is not the word: Cardio is. SO EXCITED to be playing Patty Simcox in the Palace Theatre's production of Grease this spring. Director and choreographer Carl Rajotte is MERCILESS and this choreo is out of control. The show is so well cast and all its members very talented. I cannot wait to share this show with the New Hampshire community!
The Music Man

Ye Gods! This just in: I am spending the holiday season in Philadelphia. Could not be more thrilled to be in the dance ensemble and covering Zaneeta Shinn in the Walnut Street Theatre’s production of Meredith Wilson’s The Music Man! Boy is this dancing a TON of fun and the talent in Philadelphia high.
Coming Home

Hey guys! It is breast and ovarian cancer awareness month, and in that spirit I am performing in a concert on Monday, October 29th. It is called Coming Home. It is a dance performance performed by the JCC dancers who care. It was developed by choreographer Ryan Daniel Beck and based on the music of Marc Broussard.
Crossing the Finish
September 29, 2012
Come hear me, and other excessively talented people, sing for a great cause! Singing some powerful ditties about overcoming obstacles. You’ll leave feeling great because 1) it’s gonna be really fun and 2) you did something great for humanity. WIN/WIN! See you there:)
42nd Street
August 8-August 25 2012
Come and meet those dancin’ feet! 42nd Street is a tapping sensation. With direction by Charles Repole and choreography by Michael Lichtefeld, this is shaping up to be a fantastic production. I am playing Gladys and loving every minute of it. This show features Patrick Ryan Sullivan as Julian Marsh, and a stand out cast of characters that are truly the best of the best.
Legally Blonde
June 27-July 14 2012
Oh my God, you guys! I'm having so much fun with Legally Blonde! Snaps! I will be playing Pilar and I couldn’t be more thrilled. The show is perfectly cast and chock full of Legally Blonde and Broadway veterans. Original Broadway cast member, Chico, also joins us onstage as Bruiser. Guys, he’s really freaking cute.
A Chorus Line
June 6-June 23 2012
A Chorus Line is now running, and it is such a GREAT show. The show was directed by original cast member Donna Drake and honors Michael Bennet’s choreography, which was set by Michael Gorman. I am playing Tricia and covering Maggie, Val, Kristine, and Connie. My body is aching, my brain is exploding, and I am full of awe every minute of this process.
Cole Porter: Unpublished!
​May 16, 2012
​
I’m going out with a bang! I will be heading to Maine for the summer, and the night before I leave I will be singing in a cabaret at the Duplex. It’s all unpublished Cole Porter music produced by the wonderful John Forslund. Come hear Cole Porter songs that even the nerdiest of you musical nerds have likely not heard before.
Hairspray
December 1-December 31 2011
​
What gives a girl Christmas Delight? Is it snow, is it gifts, no it’s HAIRSPRAY!
(to the tune of ‘Hairspray.’ Too bad I don’t have Corny Collins singing in the background to make that one work)
This winter, I will be heading to beautiful Lancaster, Pennsylvania to do Hairspray at the historic Fulton Theatre.
