Looking forward to the Virtual Premier of Before She Was, produced by Luna Gold Productions, which will debut this Friday. This great team was the first one I got to work with in our new COVID world as we all worked to create within the necessary safety measures and it was so good to work with wonderful artists and use our skills again. Join us for the Virtual Premier! Tickets can be found HERE.

So honored to start off this new year with a nomination for Outstanding Actress in Small Theatre by myentertainmentworld.ca for my performance as Suzie in Ominum Gatherum with Theatre By Committee back in September. That show meant a great deal to me personally and was a pleasure to be a part of that ensemble. Suzie was a whirlwind of a lady to play and it is a pleasure to look back in memories of that show.
