I have been working behind-the-scenes (well behind-the-screen) for Groundling Theatre and Crow’s Theatre’s adaptation of Julius Caesar as their social media specialist. I have been having a blast managing their Facebook and Twitter, where so many audience members and critics are able to interact with me and tell me how much they LOVE this production. …
This weekend I open Comedy of Errors with Urban Bard Productions! I get to be me… well kinda: I play Adriana of Ephesus and she is kinda like Miss PIggy but with an Irish accent and dressed like she’s from Pride and Prejudice. Come check it out!
Recently I was at The Globe. Yes, I know it’s a reconstruction, (actually I visited the carpark of the actual location as well!) truth is I am ready to give a standing ovation at any time to this fact as Sam Wanamaker is now my personal hero for all his hard work and patience on the …

The last time I did Shakespeare was… yeesh… that long ago. I think at least two years? Really? Huh. See why I used …
I am one of the playwrights for the Humber River Shakespeare Co. Sonnet Show this coming May 24th. I get 14 days to write 14 minutes based on 14 lines of Shakespeare (aka a sonnet) I got sonnet 75: So are you to my thoughts as food to life, Or as sweet-season’d showers are to the …
