2 Times the Fun

With my boyfriend gone to Europe for two weeks and with work being extremely slow, I have a lot more free time on my hands! 

What am I gonna do with all this free time, you ask...

I have two Fringe shows that I am working on this year. Bells Are Ringing with Plain Janes Theatre, directed by Kate Ryan and Kefa's Metamorphosis with Selchie Theatre, directed my Keltie Brown! I couldn't be more excited. Both shows consist of amazing casts, I am honoured to work with so many talented artists!

Stay tuned for show times, more info to come!

Time to Breathe.

For the first time since I arrived back in Edmonton, I've had the chance to breathe. 

It has been go, go, go with read throughs, rehearsals, the professional training with Feats Festival, not to mention my joe job - and that's just the way I like it!
