IN THE HOT SEAT premieres at the Fall 2025 Queens Short Play Festival

My new short play, In the Hot Seat, is currently running in Program D of the Fall 2025 Queens Short Play Festival hosted by the Secret Theatre. You can read the full press release on Broadway World here.

This 15-minute comedy is set during a girls' trip to an Arizona spa, where two childhood best friends - cooking influencer Sloane and paralegal Tessa - detox their bodies and their friendship in the sauna. As the temperature rises, the sweat, secrets, and resentments start pouring out, proving that maybe Sartre was right: hell is other people...specifically, your so-called “best friend.”

I have re-teamed with Andrea Romano on this production who is serving as director. Dixie Carroll and Caitlyn Alico Beckwith co-star.

Performance dates are:

• October 16th at 8:30 pm

• October 24th and 29th at 6:00 pm

• November 2nd at 1:00 pm*

*I will be stepping into Dixie Carroll’s role at this performance

SYNOPSIS: The Wayward Women are one of country music's biggest, most popular acts until one fateful night when fiery lead singer Morgan makes a major political statement on behalf of the band - including Callie and Bridget - in front of 20,000 fans. The backlash is swift and merciless, giving the band’s no-nonsense, sexually adventurous manager Kate more heart palpitations than one of her infamous trysts. When an unexpected, powerful visitor (The President) turns up in their dressing room and puts even more pressure on the group (with a little blackmail on the side), this trio will have to decide whether to shut up and sing or keep speaking out. Inspired by the Three Witches from Shakespeare's MACBETH and a certain real life female country trio, this 10-minute play is a comedic look at what happens when women dare to speak truth to power and the fissures it causes among friends and foes.

A House in the Suburbs at American Theatre of Actors

After making my debut as the Nurse in Seneca’s version of Phaedra last fall, I’m headed back to American Theatre of Actors as the Mother in the world premiere of A House in the Suburbs by Bruce Lawder.

Set in the mid-60s…

the play looks at a typical New England family as they wrestle with the Vietnam War, the changing social mores, and the loss of Father’s job and their idyllic home.

The play is directed by John DeBenedetto and runs January 25-29 and Feb 1-5 in the Beckmann Theater (2nd fl) at American Theatre of Actors on W. 54th St and 8th Ave.
