The Victim by Lawrence Goodman
News!
This summer I have the privilege to be involved in the world premiere of “The Victim” written by Lawrence Goodman at Shakespeare & Co. I am understudying the role of Maria, “a health aid grappling with racism during Covid 19.” This three women play will run from June 19th through July 20th. I am already having a wonderful time working on this powerful piece and learning from some of the finest actors and crew in New England!
“Three women, three interconnected monologues. Who gets to call herself a victim? Who is the perpetrator?”

I just finished my first regional production this winter. In Hartford Stage’s A Christmas Carol - A Ghost Story of Christmas adapted and directed by Michael Wilson. I had a filled ensemble track ranging from the dancing Elizabethan Apparition to Fezziwig’s daughter, Wendy, and finally a singing glamorous party guest. In addition I understudied, Belle (Scrooge’s past fiancé) and Fred’s wife. Which I got the opportunity to go on for during our 50 show run!
Following that I came back to Hartford Stage and was in the company of Romeo & Juliet directed by Artistic Director Melia Bensussen. I was an ensemble member and was able to dance and act throughout the story! I missed my official graduation to perform… but I would have chosen that over and over again.
