Feeling "Edgy"

Hello Everybody!
Well... after a long and crazy and amazing 6 month stint on Disney Cruise Lines, I am finally back on land... And it feels great! Thank you so much to everybody who came out to my farewell show last February and thanks to everybody for sending me a note on the ship every now and then. I always appreciate all of your love and support.

And after only 2 months of being back, I am fortunate enough to be advertising my next show! If you remember just over a year ago I performed a show that I co-produced with fellow cast mate Sara Farb called "Edges: A Song Cycle" by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul. Those of you who came out absolutely loved it claiming it was unlike anything you had ever seen before. WELL, your positive feedback as well as the unbelievable response we got from the Toronto community brought the show to the attention of Mitchell Marcus of Acting UpStage who is taking it on as part of the 2008/09 Acting Up season. (Very exciting!)
For those of you who have forgotten what the show is about, Edges is billed as "a fresh and hilarious rock song cycle about the trials and tribulations of moving into adulthood and the search for love, commitment and meaning. Edges explores contemporary life from first jobs, to first loves, to first Facebook friends. It's funny, poignant, and deliciously honest with an irresistible contemporary rock/pop score by the winners of the 2007 Jonathan Larson Award for songwriting."

In the spirit of innovative contemporary musical theatre, this show is being performed in a unique way. Instead of putting the show in a theatre 8 shows a week we are performing Edges at the Revival Bar-- a beautiful live music venue at College and Shaw just 2 nights a week-- Sundays at 7pm and Mondays at 8pm starting next Monday October 20th!
