Self- tapes are one thing, but this month I was hired for commercial where they dropped off a home kit and directed me via zoom.  Strange times, strange measures...but a very fun shoot none-the-less :)

Mousetrap

Was wonderful fun to take the stage as Mrs. Boyle in Sean Graney's The Mousetrap at Court Theatre Chicago this last month.  It was such a great experience to be apart of such a talent and zany company of artists in a very unique take of Agatha Christie's classic play. It was truly an experience I will never forget. 

Next Up: I'll heading down to Florida to play the role of Brooke in Other Desert Cities at The Studio Theatre at Tierra del Sol. It's a role I have long wanted to play and I can't wait to dig my teeth into it.

Many thanks to the National Restaurant Association for having me in for a day of industrial work last week. It was my second time working with them and it was a pleasure to shoot in their headquarters in the old Sears Tower. (Like a true Chicago native I just refuse to call it the Willis ;).

I am also thrilled to be preparing to join the cast of Mousetrap as Mrs. Boyle during one the matinee performances next week. It has been a pleasure understudying two roles in this production and it will be a joy to have a go at a performance next week. 

​Keep it coming 2020.

Fresh Start to 2020

What a pleasure to kick off 2020 balancing two exciting projects.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of shooting Merrick's newest commercial campaign for Fresh Kisses puppy treats. It was a great pleasure to shoot with the fantastic folks from Escape Pod agency over at Chicago's Revolution Studios. It was a fun day of being set with my co-star, a gorgeous golden doddle pup by the name of Lucy (who really stole the show). 

Last night I watched the final dress rehearsal for Sean Graney's Mousetrap at Court Theatre where I have the honor of USing two roles. I will be taking the stage in the show come February and great look forward to playing with such a talented ensemble. In the meantime, I have the pleasure to observing their fine work grow and evolve during this first week of preview performances. 

Feeling very grateful to be a working actor and ready to keep the momentum going. Here's to a great new year to come. Cheers, y'all.

Fall 2019 at Loyola

Really proud of the work I witnessed this term from my Theatre 100 students at Loyola University. Many of them came into the class having never even seen a play before and yet today for their final they all presented original devised pieces. "As a teacher, you'll be taught" has never been rung truer for me than this term. Feeling very inspired by all the brave, creative choices I witnessed throughout the semester and very thankful for the all the fine young artists I got to spend time with this fall.
